Soul Trigger

Chapter 308 Core (II)

[Main mission completed: Destroy all the vanguard troops occupying the city hall]

[I got ten new summon slots]

There are ten more directions in the extended perception of Soul Trigger.

Feeling the abundant spiritual essence coming from the soul-sucking ghost, Ji Li consumed a quarter of the spiritual essence in his body and casually summoned a few faceless skeletons and two evil spirit warlords.

Now that the energy crisis, or the problem of "logistics and food", has been temporarily solved, spiritual essence can be used more unscrupulously.

Ji Li thought for a moment and withdrew an evil spirit commander.

The existence of the Demon King's army will continuously consume his spiritual essence. When the number was small before, his perception was very weak.

Now there are more than a dozen of them standing together. Even though he has abundant spiritual energy now, he can clearly feel the decline of his spiritual energy.

Especially these two soul suckers, the summoning consumption is the same as that of the evil spirit warlord, but the continuous consumption is four times that of the evil spirit warlord.

Therefore, this type of soldier is destined to only be an elite unit in his army, and there cannot be too many of them.

Judging from the strength currently demonstrated by the Soul-sucking Ghost, it can basically kill a level 15 "adventurer" instantly.

One needs to be careful with the summoning conditions. So far, Ji Li has only encountered minions. The desires and spirits of true strong men will probably not be easily swallowed up by the summoning ceremony.

After taking a glance at the "Demon King's Army" that was gradually forming in size in front of him, Ji Li put on his armor again.

After leaving behind an evil spirit commander and two evil spirit followers as personal guards, he let the remaining demon army spread out from around the city hall.

Obviously, he and the "adventurers" do not belong to the same camp at all at the moment.

If the "Adventurer" wants to leave here, he must kill him as the "Evil Demon Lord".

If he wants to get out, he will probably have to kill the nest master here, or the highest person opposite to his camp, the so-called "King of Lightlessness".

"I've been playing with you here for so long. I hope your personality relic won't disappoint me by then..."

Ji Li came to the large machine in the center of the core hall.

Now all the people in the city hall have been killed, but there is no notification that the task is completed. Obviously other conditions need to be triggered.

Although Ji Li has now solved the problem of spiritual energy and no longer needs that extraction room, he is still very interested in the city construction system.

On the front of the device, Ji Li found a hole similar to that of the surveillance tower, so he reached his hand directly in, felt the familiar touch, and squeezed it hard.

The spiritual circuit on the device suddenly lit up, and Ji Li sensed that the device in front of him had established some kind of connection with himself at this moment.

And this connection is radiating to the entire inner city through the City Hall——

There were damaged crossbows, a large number of ruins, nameless collapsed buildings, and unknown buildings that were intact but could not be affected in any way.

"It seems that I can sense the structure of the entire inner city and transform it, but for some reason nothing can be moved. It seems that some necessary conditions are missing..."

While thinking, the red crystal vibrated:——
【Mission completed: Recapture the City Hall.】

[I can now discover an external feature and start the city construction system]
-
Ji Li felt a little relieved after solving the energy problem and chose to check the urban construction system first.

At this moment, the watch, which had been silent for a while, spoke:

[Due to your status as a cheater, the spiritual essence consumption of the city construction system has doubled. You cannot view the "power influence" system, but your "influence" ranking will be exposed to other powers and your position will be exposed.]

Red Crystal Vibration:
[This unreasonable rule has been forcibly modified...]

After a familiar wrangling, the watch failed to gain any advantage, but it still slightly increased the spiritual essence consumption of Ji Li's city construction system.

According to this, I am forced to expand by force?
The watch's voice came again, with a hint of impatience:

[Notice to all servers: The Demon King is taking over the authority of the Inner City Hall and issuing a regional mission to retake the Inner City Hall! ]

[The death penalty for participating players is halved. Every time you kill a demon king's army, you can unlock a random skill. Kill the demon king and you can immediately clear the "Outside the Boundary"! ]

Ji Li narrowed his eyes.

Ji Li heard the conversation of the vanguard team just now, and of course he heard the shock of several people when they found out that someone was actually "dead".

If the level penalty for people killed by soul-sucking ghosts will be increased, this means that in Ji Li's expansion process, these "adventurers" have become a relatively limited resource.

"In that case, I will kill all the players in this crappy game of yours. Then I will be the only one left to play this game with you..."

With the soul-sucking ghost here, he could just suck it hard and it would be over. He even wished that the nest owner would send him more food to speed up his development...

He smiled and opened the so-called city construction system through the soul trigger.

But the first to appear was an influential list:

Ji Li was the first to see his position on the entire gray list:

Rank 24: Demon King’s Castle.

Apart from him, all other names on the list are gray and invisible, except for two:

Rank 9: The Outlaws.

Rank 7: The Masonic Order.

"It seems that this small number of players still has a considerable community..."

Moreover, before contacting the corresponding forces, it should be impossible to check the influence ranking of the other party's strength.

"It seems I am still a vulnerable group."

Ji Li flipped through the list thoughtfully and then closed it.

Then, a three-dimensional image of the entire inner city of the Demon King's Castle appeared before his eyes:
[Extraction Chamber (Completely Damaged): Repairable/Reconstructible]

[Magic Bed Crossbow (Completely Damaged): Repairable/Buildable]

[Watchtower (Damaged): Repairable]

What is needed for repair is Ji Li’s spiritual essence.

In addition to the buildings he already knew, there were also city walls, rift gates, eyeball watchtowers, fel military halls, stomach barracks, cemetery granaries and many other buildings for him to inject spiritual essence into for adjustment.

The Stomach Barracks also provides some content, such as the ability to inject spiritual essence and train various evil creatures with different appearances to fight for you.

However, most of these large buildings are completely damaged, and restoration is basically equivalent to reconstruction.

As for the name, you can tell at first glance that it is not a good thing. Should we say that it is worthy of being called the "Evil Demon Lord"?

Ji Li complained in his heart, and then he left after he had a basic understanding of the mechanism of the city construction system.

He didn't think that the so-called "evil" set by the rules of this Linglin could be stronger than his own characteristics.

Then he chose to look at the so-called external characteristics.

As the vibrations of the red crystal came, the location and purpose of the external characteristics were explained.

This is a special feature that can be injected into the buildings of faction units, which can force some transformation on the buildings of the faction units, or obtain completely new buildings.

Obviously, the external characteristics are highly bound to the urban construction system.

The difference between them and ordinary features is that one acts on people and soldiers, and the other acts on building systems.

Ji Li continued to read on:

1. Collapse Spirit Fire (Devil King City Core Transformation, Amplify the Faceless Bone Demon King Army)
This is the first characteristic, which is obviously prepared for the evil spirit warlord lineage which has currently formed a somewhat systematic lineage. Unfortunately, this expressiveness only comes from one of Ji Li's characteristics.

He didn't look any further and turned to the next one.

After reading the description, I immediately became interested:

2. Rage Proverbs (adds a new building, mass-produces Heart Blades, amplifies the entire Demon King's army, amplifies sword attacks and the spiritual flow and offensive specialization of weapons)
"Dianpo calls herself an expert... If the Black Sun knew about this, they would be so anxious. Mass-produced Heart Blade? You are really good..."

In other words, this building can mass-produce Heart Blades that can allow the Demon King's army to enter a state of Proverbs Liberation. If this is true, then it is not only against the will of heaven, but also a subversion of the underlying logic of soul psychology.

It’s just that the rules of this spiritual prison are inherently illusory and not based on realistic logic.

Ji Li decided to include this as an alternative, and then looked at the third one.

His breathing suddenly hitched.

3. Carbon Transformation (Devil's Castle Core Transformation, Casting Odin's Shadow)
