Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 18 18. New Enemies

At the end of the stairs leading to the second basement floor, there is also a metal gate.

It is thicker and stronger than the gate on the previous floor, and it takes four soldiers to pull it open.

"Listen to my password and prepare to open the door." Sergeant Mars looked at Li Nuo:

"Jarvis, it's up to you to go in and wake up the undead. Be careful."

"Yes, sir." Li Nuo took a deep breath and smelled a faint rancid smell.

While commanding the soldiers to open the door, Sergeant Mars told Li Nuo:

"Remember, you can only retreat if you get my order. You have to wake up as many undead as possible. Otherwise, our reconnaissance results will be seriously biased, and more soldiers will die."

"Yes, sir."

The metal gate slowly opened, and a dark crack appeared before Li Nuo's eyes.

As soon as he passed through the gate, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Chest tightness, shortness of breath, out of breath.

Tinnitus, eye swelling, limb weakness.

Is this poisoned?

Li Nuo settled his mind, shook his head slightly, and concentrated his attention.

The previous negative feelings subsided a lot at once, the chest tightness disappeared, the tinnitus disappeared, and other symptoms disappeared without a trace.

It's not poisoning, it seems to be the psychological effect brought by the environment here.

Li Nuo frowned, maintaining a state of high concentration.

He moved forward step by step, walking slowly under the light of the coal lamp less than half a meter away.

Still the same, throwing deconstruction spells while walking, and judging what is around him through system messages.

【You are trying to deconstruct the "mottled stone bricks".】

【You are trying to deconstruct the "stains left by mollusks".】

【You are trying to deconstruct the "black hair left by the dead".】

Strange, why no bones?

In the second basement floor, apart from stains and hairs, there were no bones to be seen.

Didn't Sergeant Mars say that there will be undead structures like skeleton archers here?

Li Nuo murmured in his heart.

He widened his eyes as much as possible so that he could see clearly the scene several meters away, looking for the purple light in the skeleton soldier's skull.

However, no faint purple light appeared.

On the contrary, it was a kind of dark green light, which lit up in patches, floating around Li Nuo like a vast sea of ​​stars.

The dots of dark green light flickered.

First it was bright for three seconds, then it was uniformly dark for three seconds, and then it was bright for three seconds, as if breathing regularly.

Li Nuo turned his head to look at Sergeant Mars and the others, their faces were full of disbelief.

Li Nuo understood that the situation at the scene exceeded their expectations.

Li Nuo threw the deconstruction technique at one of the dark green rays of light, slightly startled in his heart.

This is not the skeleton soldier that Sergeant Marrs expected, nor is it the other types of soldiers seen on the basement floor!

[System message: You are trying to deconstruct "undead creature of unknown type". 】

[It is expected to consume 5 energy points to make the deconstruction complete to 100%. 】

[You currently have 10 energy points. Are you sure to deconstruct? 】

Li Nuo's heart sank.

5 points of energy, this consumption is half of that of a large skeleton, and 2.5 times that of a skeleton soldier.

There shouldn't be a simple linear relationship between the energy consumption and the strength of the deconstructed object.

Deconstructing a large skeleton requires 10 stamina.

It takes 2 points to deconstruct a skeleton soldier.

The ratio between the two is 5 to 1.

But to say that 5 skeleton soldiers can kill 1 big skeleton is really nonsense.

Therefore, energy consumption is not simply calculated according to the strength of the deconstructed object.

But the amount of energy consumed, to a certain extent, can reflect the strength of an individual.

There are not many large skeletons that need 10 energy points to deconstruct, but there are a large number of unknown undead creatures that need 5 energy points to deconstruct, and they are right in front of you

Li Nuo immediately had the urge to run, but he quickly restrained it.

Li Nuo shifted his gaze, forced himself to remain calm, and threw deconstruction techniques to the waking undead creatures one by one to see if there were any elite units that required a lot of energy.

After throwing out more than a dozen deconstruction techniques in a row, Li Nuo let out a slight snort.

He found that there was a different existence in the dark area far in front of him.

[System message: You are trying to deconstruct the "magic device engraved with undead runes". 】

[It is expected to consume 10 energy points to make the deconstruction complete to 100%. 】

[You currently have 10 energy points, are you sure you want to deconstruct? 】

Here it comes, the key thing that needs to consume 10 points of energy is here.

Li Nuo had a hunch that this thing could definitely affect his life or death.

"Confirm the 100% complete deconstruction."

After meditating, Li Nuo swayed slightly, then stood still in a trance.

The energy value in the inventory was exhausted, and the result of the deconstruction immediately appeared in his mind.

【Name】Bound Spirit Stone Tomb

This is a type of death magic building.

Its appearance is similar to ordinary stone tombs, composed of hard and ancient rocks.

The priests of the Necromancer sect arranged a unique death-like magic pattern on this stone mound, giving it some powerful death-like magic effects.

[Construction value] 110,000/110,000

The construction value is a digital representation of the integrity of the building.

When the construction value is zero, the death energy inside the stone mound will be zero, and the stone mound will enter a deep sleep state.

[Soul Strength] 1 point

Soul strength is the "blood volume" of all death-like things.

[Death energy] 61/61 points

Death energy is the "mana" of death-type buildings, which can be restored in sleep.

【Skill】

Active skills:

Death Pulse, Level 1.

Consumes 5 death energy to release a death pulse ray. The cast preparation time is 3 seconds.

Dominion over the dead, level 1.

This structure is effective for guiding undead creatures into team fights.

Capturing Souls, Level 1.

The souls of those who died within 100 meters of this building will be absorbed and bound.

Living people within 100 meters around this building have a chance to have their souls taken away.

The souls captured by this building will become undead units controlled by it.

Frenzied Command, Level 1.

Consumes 50 points of death energy to make the undead units controlled by this building enter a frenzied fighting state, which lasts up to 10 minutes.

After the frenzy state ends, the undead unit enters a half-hour weakened state.

The casting preparation time is 10 seconds.

Passive skill:

The foundation of death, level 1.

At the expense of all mobility, the structure gains the ability to cast death-like spells instantly.

Damage link, level 5.

Any damage taken by this structure will be borne by the undead it restrains for 50%.

Undead Commander, Level 3.

This building can control 300 undead units. At present, 282 have been controlled.

Resurrection of the dead, level 1.

This building is within the area of ​​influence of the Nexus.

After the construction value or death energy is reset to zero, it is estimated that after 3 hours of sleep, it can be put into use again.

Guardian of Death, Level 1.

Anyone who does not modify the necromantic rune of this building in the correct way will activate this passive skill, causing a level 1 "death storm". "Death Storm" will cause a lot of death magic damage to everything within 1 meter around the target.

【Construction Requirements】

(slightly)

【weakness】

One-hit kill level weakness:

Using death-like spells or props to extract the soul from the device can completely destroy the building.

Lethal Weaknesses:

Destroying a large number of undead runes at one time, or purifying a large number of undead bound by this building, can make this building suffer fatal damage.

Pinning Operational Weaknesses:

Necromantic runes are the logical language of this building.

Modifying the Necromancer Rune on this building will cause its operation to become unstable, then reduce the construction value, death energy, or make the skill unusable.

Li Nuo narrowed his eyes, and a flash of light flashed in his mind!

He knew what MI4's secret experimental program was!

He also knew how to give the empire the upper hand in this war.

Modifying the undead runes and paralyzing death-like magic buildings is exactly the purpose of MI4!

"This deconstruction technique is really powerful. It took years of research by the military to find a feasible way, but I only spent 10 energy points to discover it."

Li Nuo couldn't help feeling emotional, and gave the system a thumbs up.
