Killing America Terror Starts at a Fatal Turn

Bottomless Abyss, Level 46, Zela Tower.

Luke has stayed at the Babakar Hotel for two days. Although this hotel is not as famous as the Siani Tavern, as a cross-world hotel chain that has been operating in the Abyss for many years, its heritage and connections are not comparable to that of a newcomer like Luke. of.

Although it is difficult to sell arms, under Luke's "commission method" offensive, the hotel still contacted the quartermaster of the city defense army through various relationships.

Luke did not come forward at all in the subsequent communication. He only delivered a spear to the hotel as a sample, and the hotel people and the quartermaster negotiated the price throughout the process.

The quality of this batch of enchanted spears is very high, and there is basically nothing to fault about it, so the price has also been raised. In the end, the quartermaster purchased these weapons for 120 soul stones on behalf of the city defense army.

After the two parties agreed on the price, Luke came forward.

Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand.

The quartermaster paid Luke 80 soul stones, and Luke paid the agency fee for 16 soul stones to the hotel. He accepted the remaining 64 soul stones himself, and received seven days of free room and board at the Babakar Hotel.

The current balance of soul stones in the pocket is 114, and the balance of magic crystals is more than 30.

During the transaction, Luke also asked in a roundabout way why the soul stone was so precious, and found its true function.

Just like gold can still become the currency standard in modern society because it plays an important role in electronic products, aerospace, medical care, etc. Soul stones can become the precious currency of the abyss, and they also have their own unique features.

In the simplest way, for ordinary demons, they only need to take the soul stone orally to get a huge improvement. For example, if a primitive demon eats a soul stone, there is a high probability that it will be able to advance to the next level immediately.

For the abyss lords, every soul stone can hatch out subordinates with great potential. Sufficient soul stones can allow them to build a group of elite troops in a short period of time.

Even for gods, soul stones have huge benefits. They can release the soul stones in their own kingdoms and create a group of false petitioners. Their functions are similar to those of real petitioners, but their efficiency is much lower. They have about one third of the effect of real petitioners. Even so, which god would dislike having too many petitioners?

After listening to the quartermaster bragging about these things, Luke wondered whether he could also use the power of the ability tree to digest these soul stones and add some petitioners to himself.

After returning to the hotel, he held a soul stone in his hand and mentally communicated with the ability tree. As a result, the ability tree really responded.

A slender root spread from the ability tree and pierced into the soul stone. Soon, the dark and shaking colors in the soul stone disappeared completely, and then the entire soul stone was shattered into powder, and a small soul body was gradually born on the ability tree.

It flies around the ability tree and goes back to rest when it gets tired. It doesn't look like a petitioner, but a bit like the companion tree elf of the ability tree.

Luke could sense this new little thing. As his mind changed, the new "Tree Elf" dived straight into the mixed power of faith. Together with the previous petitioners, it began to filter out the power of faith. of impurities.

After a little sensing, Luke found that the ability of this "tree elf" was slightly stronger than what the quartermaster said, and was roughly equivalent to half the efficiency of the petitioner. I don't know if it's the change caused by the ability tree, or the quartermaster himself doesn't know much about this conversion and is just bragging casually.

Seeing that the soul stones were indeed effective, Luke took them out directly and took out 99 soul stones from the remaining soul stones. Together with the previous one, they made up an integer of 100. All of them were given to the ability tree for absorption, and the rest were kept as a precaution. If there is anything to spend money on, let’s not absorb it for the time being.

99 "tree elves" flew out from the branches and leaves of the ability tree and stepped into the pool of faith one after another.

The divinity of "Thunder", which was just short of finishing, exploded instantly and split into two strands in a burst of flash.

Free attribute points are increased by 1, and thunder-related abilities are greatly improved.

After a period of noise, the tree elves began to work diligently again.

This free attribute point was focused on physical strength as usual, raising it to 21 points.

The fire is burning!

Luke felt a hot, magma-like energy coursing through his body, burning in his blood.

As this energy is tempered and calcined, his heart beats more powerfully, and every beat seems to cause the entire room decoration to vibrate. His muscles become tougher and tighter, his bones become stronger, and his senses change. He is so keen that he seems to be able to sense the movement of every nerve.

The most important thing is that a special kind of energy begins to be spontaneously generated in the body.

Different from the mental power that needs to be connected with the extraordinary energy of the outside world to achieve maximum effectiveness, this energy feels somewhat similar to psychic energy, but it is more restrained and does not react at all with the extraordinary energy of the outside world. It only has pure physical amplification internally and direct external energy. The killing effect.

Since there was no senior to teach him, he simply named this energy "Qi" based on his experience in his previous life.

Although it was his first time, Luke's powerful soul allowed him to skillfully control the energy in his body and thrust it out from his fingertips. In front of him, a small hole about one centimeter in diameter appeared silently on the solid wood tabletop supported by unknown wood.

A very practical and hidden ability.

At this time, Luke officially reached the hero level in physical training.

Although he is just entering the hero level for the first time, and he only knows how to fight with a less powerful stick, this can at least guarantee Luke's ability to protect himself when being approached by some demons with strange powers, so that he will not be instantly killed, and then Then distance yourself from the world in the mirror, thunder and fire are waiting for you.

After the physical strength breakthrough, there is no qualitative improvement in the subsequent points added. To continue strengthening to the paragon level requires 10 free attribute points, which is enough to increase the soul by 3 points. This transaction is a bit of a loss.

Subsequent free attribute points should continue to be invested in the soul and strive to break through the legendary rank as soon as possible.

Current legendary progress: Soul Strength 31 (40), "Mirror" Divinity 4 (30).

The future is promising!

After making a big deal, Luke's treatment at the Babakar Hotel has skyrocketed. The young man who guided Luke before has now become an attendant dedicated to serving him. As long as he still lives in Babakar, this young man will Will follow him according to his needs.

Luke also finally knew his name - Herne Wood, who was born near the city of Neverwinter in the northern part of the Sword Coast in Faerûn. According to him, he learned some bard skills when he was a child and went on adventures with his friends for several years. Unfortunately, he was not talented enough, so he eventually returned to his hometown and applied to become a waiter stationed in the Abyss.

Question: What do you need to do after becoming a nouveau riche?

Answer: Buy, buy, buy!

Luke, who enjoyed VIP treatment, exchanged one soul stone for 1,100 soul crystals at the hotel, and asked his little boy Hene to lead the way and go shopping!

The first stop was the magic props shop where Hene bought the [Prophecy of Understanding] scroll.

The exterior wall of this prop shop is made of smooth stones and is inlaid with sparkling gems. A golden signboard hangs at the door, which reads "Angelo's Magic Treasure House" in gorgeous fonts. After entering the door, various magic scrolls are placed on the shelves of the prop shop, shining with the light of extraordinary energy.

Luke looked at them one by one. He bought more than 30 of the cheapest [Prophecy of Comprehension] in one go, and directly contracted the store's inventory.

Among the other scrolls, they can quickly recover from trauma. One of the [Healing Touch] and [Stand Shield] scrolls sold for 30 magic stones, and Luke directly bought a dozen of them. The reason I didn’t buy more than 30 copies is that these two are not as commonly used as [Comprehensive Prophecy], and there are only a dozen copies in stock.

Except for these two most useful scrolls, Luke is not that good as a buyer of other scrolls.

Luke bought two or three copies of relatively new scrolls such as [Invisibility], [Flying], [Summoning Elemental Creatures], etc., but he did not buy other scrolls such as fireballs, spider webs, and wind scrolls.

These scrolls don't have much practical value to Luke now. They are mainly given as souvenirs to his friends.

Just as he walked out of the store, there was a commotion on the street. Luke saw a small group of half-demon walking over, as if they were guarding someone.

He suddenly felt a familiar atmosphere and stood at the door of the store, his thoughts sinking into the spiritual world.

oh!

It turns out to be Jeanne!

Why did she come to the 46th floor?

The Spider God Queen's divine domain is in the Pit Demon Web on the 66th floor of the abyss.

But then I thought about it, and I realized that both of them had the intention to enter the original world, and they had been planning for who knows how many years.

After being unable to attack for a long time, a good opportunity suddenly appeared. It was very reasonable for the two abyss lords to join forces to do bad things.

Jeanne is probably Rose's personal maid or something like that now. If she appears here, it means that Rose must be here too.

And when a dangerous person like Rose appeared in his capital, it was impossible for Grazte not to accompany him. Otherwise, who knows if the city would have changed its owner after a trip.

Therefore, now the two abyss lords Luke has offended are both on the 46th floor, or to narrow the scope a little further, both are in the Zela Tower.

Danger! ! !

"It seems that I forgot something I should buy." Luke said something and turned back to the store. While browsing the scroll, he checked Jeanne's spiritual world through the connection of the power of faith.

The hearts of believers are defenseless against their gods. Although it is not mind-reading, Luke easily learned Jeanna's emotions towards him.

Trust, longing, and asking for help are generally these types of emotions.

Later, he checked Jeana's emotions towards the Spider Queen.

Fear, panic, apprehension.

good!

He is a good comrade who is in Cao's camp but his heart is in Han!

Luke was a little relieved, and through the connection of the power of faith, he said in Jeanna's heart: "Stay nearby, I have something to ask you."

"Handsome uncle! Is that you?" Jeanne stood there with a happy face and responded in her heart.

"It's me. Don't stop where you are. Be more natural and find a shop to go in."

Several wax-melting demon maids and half-demon guards around Jeanna stopped in place, waiting for her next reaction. Jeanna rolled her eyes, tilted her head and saw a pharmacy store next to her, turned directly in, and continued in her heart: "Uncle Handsome, are you here to take me back? It's so scary here, that woman kills people at every turn, let's Many of Na’s friends are dead.”

Although it seemed that this girl was very favored by the Spider Queen, she didn't know what she had gone through, and her heart was filled with panic. Luke reassured: "Don't worry, I will take you back."

After Jeanna calmed down a little, he asked: "When did you come? Is the Spider Queen also there? Do you know what she is planning?"

Accompanied by the wax-melting demon maid, Jeanne glanced at the potions in the store and responded in her heart: "We just arrived today. The Queen of Gods discussed with the owner here in the Silver Palace and let me come out to relax. As for I don’t know much about her plan, but we went to a place before coming to the Silver Palace, and the Queen stayed there for a while.”

She said hesitantly: "But I don't know where that is."

Luke thought for a while, there are more ways to play the power of faith connection. He said to Jeanne: "Find a place to rest, relax your resistance, and try your best to recall what happened that day."

Because of the influence of "Apocalypse" and the trust she had gotten along with before, Jeanne obeyed Luke's arrangement. When she saw a seat not far away, she ran directly over, jumped on it and sat down, and said to the maids: "I'm tired." Come on, take a rest."

In her mind, she began to recall the day's experience according to Luke's instructions, and on the surface, she began to close her eyes and rest.

Luke put his pure power of faith into the link with Jeanne, strengthening the closeness of the connection between the two. His spiritual power directly penetrated into her soul, and he successfully saw what he wanted.

The picture uses Jeanna as the main perspective. It seems that they are in a wilderness somewhere. The bright white salt river can be vaguely seen in the distance. After staying for two days and nights, the Queen of Gods pulls Jeanne up, and a complex formation forms at her feet. The magic was formed, and the two of them were instantly in the Silver Palace.

Luke took back the power of faith and recalled the scene in Jeanna's memory just now.

Directly teleporting arrival and departure, there is no way back and forth. If it were anywhere else, Luke would really be blinded.

Unfortunately, he came here on foot from the salt swamp. Although there was no particularly obvious surface in that wilderness, Luke still completed the comparison in his mind and found the location.

Next, go explore and see what's hidden there.

After the plan was finalized, he said to Jeanne: "Okay, I understand, nothing happens now, you can move freely. If there is an emergency and you want to contact me, you can find a mirror and pray to me silently in front of the mirror, I will respond promptly."

She had to perform a full set of performances, and Jeanne, who had lived in the Spider Temple for a long time, also sharpened her alert character. After hearing what Luke said, she didn't get up immediately. She really rested for a while. After about ten minutes, she stood up and stretched her little body.

"We're tired, let's go back."
