Full-Time Magister: All-Element Mutant Star Child

After killing the two undead warriors, Dongfang Yang obtained two relatively valuable undead crystals. These two undead warriors did not drop any strange bones or essences, only fragments of their souls.

The other undead warriors roared and released fragments of their souls, two of which were collected by others.

Along the way, the Soul Ring continuously collected the "ownerless" fragments of spirits and remnants from the surrounding area, and now the area where the Soul Ring collects fragments of spirits and remnants covers a radius of 100 meters.

As long as the storage unit exists, the "ownerless" essence and remnants of the soul will be collected by the Soul Ring.

Unfortunately, the drop rate of servant-level spirits is too low; it takes almost one spirit to drop from a hundred undead servants.

If you're unlucky, it might take three or four hundred undead servants roaring to drop just one spirit essence.

After all, the probability of each undead servant dropping a spirit is very low; it's not a certain percentage of undead that are guaranteed to drop a spirit.

Along the way, Dongfang Yang had only managed to snag two spirit essences, but that was a mistake. Two natural servant-level spirit essences—that was a windfall of ten million.

There are also several hundred slave-level remnants of souls, which together are worth a lot of money.

Late at night, Dongfang Yang and Lingling circled the outer city wall of the ancient capital and arrived at another city gate.

The ancient capital was very large, and the outer city wall covered a vast area. In addition to the four main city gates in the east, west, south, and north, there were also some secondary city gates for monks to enter and exit.

Otherwise, it would be too inconvenient for mages to enter and exit the city through only the four gates of the east, west, south, and north.

At the same time, since most mages enter and exit the city through the city gates, the number of undead within a radius of several hundred meters around each city gate is the lowest. Undead from other places will be immediately dealt with by the mages entering and exiting the city gates.

After arriving in this area free of the undead, Dongfang Yang dispersed his spiritual power and asked Lingling, "Would you like to go back to the city to rest for a while?"

Dongfang Yang and Lingling had traveled quite a distance through the pile of dead.

Dongfang Yang is fine. He's a mid-level mage, so he won't get tired from this distance.

But Lingling is only a little girl of about ten years old and hasn't awakened her magic yet. Dongfang Yang felt that she might need to rest for a while.

Lingling didn't refuse: "Then let's go back to the hotel and rest. Tomorrow we'll explore a tomb of the dead."

After sending Lingling back to the hotel, Dongfang Yang went to the magic market to sell the miscellaneous items he had collected that night.

Originally, Dongfang Yang had planned to sell the strange bone of the Great Calamity Ghost Wing, but he thought it was a good thing and it would be a loss to sell it here, so he decided to sell it to his family after returning home.

……

The next morning, during breakfast, Lingling spoke to Dongfang Yang,

"After I returned to the hotel last night, I saw a message about a 'throat-sealing ghost'."

Lingling then recounted the contents of the message.

It turns out that yesterday during the day, ten elite mid-level mages went to explore a warrior-level undead tomb.

This group of mid-level mages fought from morning until evening, eliminating all the undead in the cemetery and returning laden with spoils from the tomb.

As a result, on their way back, one by one they died, until they reached Anjie, leaving only one member of their elite mage team.

They encountered the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon!

The origin of this throat-sealing horned ghost is unknown; it may have been missed during their exploration of the undead tombs, or it may have been selected from elsewhere.

This throat-sealing horned demon has its eyes on them.

The ten mid-level mages returned to the city with their spoils in the evening, as the sun had set.

The Throat-Sealing Demon roams the shadows, or silently hides within the mage's shadow. On their journey home, if they relax even slightly, the Throat-Sealing Demon will silently slit their throats.

These ten mid-level mages were quite powerful, but they just couldn't do anything against the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon. I don't know what they were thinking, but none of them were light-type mages.

If light exists, the throat-sealing horn demon will have nowhere to hide in a radiant illumination.

Without the presence of light, their throat-sealing horned ghosts were completely helpless, and they couldn't even find the location of the throat-sealing horned ghosts.

If the magic is used to cover the attack, it might be lucky enough to hit the horned demon with a Shadow Strike and severely injure it.

However, this mid-level team had only cleared one camera tomb during the day, and one of them had already fought a battle, so their mana was quite depleted.

Even if their magical energy wasn't depleted, they couldn't use it to continuously cover the surrounding firepower with magic.

The throat-sealing horn demon isn't stupid; it won't get too close to the mage unless it's confident, and it will also avoid the mage's attacks.

Lingling said, "After the only surviving mid-level mage returned, he posted online that he had encountered the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon, and he even sold information about the location of the tomb they explored yesterday."

"Do you think we should buy the location information for this tomb?"

Dongfang Yang had thought there would be some specific news, but he responded with some disappointment:

"Don't buy the information about the tomb's location."

"That team of mid-level mages only encountered the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon on their way back to the city wall after exploring the tomb, which led to the casualties."

"This throat-sealing horned ghost shouldn't be a spirit from that tomb, otherwise they would have encountered it while exploring the tomb."

"Let's buy a newly discovered, unexplored tomb of a warrior-level undead and start exploring."

Lingling nodded.

Actually, she had similar thoughts to Dongfang Yang, but since she had news about the Sealed Throat Demon, she had to tell Dongfang Yang and ask for his opinion.

Lingling then ate breakfast in a few bites, and then took out her computer to start making purchases, only to discover information about unexplored tombs of the dead.

Suddenly, Lingling looked up at Dongfang Yang and spoke:

"By the way, the information on the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon mentions that it rarely attacks ordinary mages; it prefers to assassinate elite mages."

Dongfang Yang replied, "You mean, you want me to act as bait to lure the Throat-Sealing Demon into assassinating me?"

Lingling knew this idea was a bit misleading, but she didn't hypocritically deny it:

"I have this idea, but it's a bit dangerous."

"Over the past week or so, while you were hunting demons among the undead at night, you may have been targeted by a throat-sealing horned ghost."

"It's only because you use light magic almost constantly and fire magic with purifying abilities that the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon has no chance to get close."

"Last night I told you not to use fire and light magic because I was afraid the Throat-Sealing Demon would stay away from you after seeing your magic."

"Yesterday, you didn't use fire magic and light magic for a while, and a giant demon attacked you."

"The Great Calamity Ghost and the Throat-Sealing Horned Ghost are similar. Although they are named as undead, they are essentially closer to dark creatures and are both good at using shadow-type sorcery similar to shadow magic."

"If you are walking through the horde of the dead at night and you don't use fire magic or light magic constantly, if there is a throat-sealing horn nearby, it might try to get close and assassinate you."
