Tower Defense Game: My Eternal Kingdom

Chapter 247 The candle without light
Swish!
A rippling golden glow surrounded Cheng Shen's body, dispelling the darkness in the mine for a moment.

After cleaning up these monsters, Cheng Shen was directly promoted to a level.

Level 22.

15 points of growth attributes are automatically allocated, allowing his four basic attributes to reach an average of 85 points.

——This is the result of the attribute balance being increased by 3 points.

1 skill point.

Without much hesitation, Cheng Shen upgraded the Blue Whale Breathing Technique, which had already been upgraded to level 3, to another level.

Reach level 4.

Level 4 Blue Whale Breathing increases mana by 11 per meditation.

This is the ability that can improve him the most now.

With the assistance of the two variations, he can obtain an increase effect of about 5000 mana points per day on average!
and.

This is just the increase of Gray Snake and freak's awareness.

While meditating, their own mental strength is also increasing, and the growth of one branch is equivalent to half a Cheng Shen. If he fuses the two of them one day, he can directly obtain double the increase!

This breathing method had a considerable impact on Cheng Shen.

……

"It can swallow some blood energy again."

Cheng Shen thought to himself.

His previous body's capacity for blood energy has reached its limit, but after the upgrade, the growth of basic attributes has increased his body's strength again, and his sense of abundance has relatively weakened.

but.

Cheng Shen looked expressionlessly at the deformed monsters that were constantly pouring out of the mine.

Although, he is not taboo about meat and vegetables, even the decayed undead can be wiped out from the dual levels of spirit and flesh and blood.

But this kind of thing,
I always feel that after eating, there will be an illusion that I am not clean...

The monsters who fought against the petrified ancestors just now seemed to be a large army entrenched here. After they were eliminated, only two or three small monsters came out from the depths, and there was no such bloated brood.

Cheng Shen commanded the troops to continue to penetrate.

When passing by.

He picked up the item dropped by the polluted brood. There were two items in total, one of which was an irregularly shaped gray-green ore.

and a drawing.

【Polluted Ore】

【material】

[Level: Rare]

[Description: A special ore formed after being heavily corroded by the breath of the abyss, which can be used for crafting and forging]

……

【Making Blueprint of Unlit Candle】

【tool】

[Level: Rare]

[Explanation: After using it, you can master the production method of the special potion, the Lightless Candle. This item is a special item for a specific area. When it is burned, it can continuously dispel the surrounding abyss and dark energy, and it has a low effect to suppress pollution]

[Materials: Contaminated Ore, Contaminated Flesh, Distorted Eye]

[Requirement: Level 4 potion blending]

……

Tainted ore is a stone formed after normal ore raw materials have been eroded by the energy of the abyss.

This material can usually only be used to craft certain items.

Value is limited.

But this drawing just gives a way to use it.

"The Unlit Candle... This is an indispensable prop for the normal exploration process."

Cheng Shen was slightly stunned.

If a regular unit wants to go deep into this polluted mine, it will definitely consume a lot of dark candles, so it will inevitably take a lot of time to collect materials and make enough props.

But he directly omitted this step.

Whether it is the petrified ancestors, or him, and Arjieka, they can survive in this mine without a lightless candle.

but.

This thing is not useless.

The main reason is that Cheng Shen basically has the materials needed to make it at his fingertips.

The mobs that were killed just now dropped a lot of polluted ore, and the other two materials needed for crafting are polluted flesh and the eye of distortion.

Cheng Shen can draw materials from himself at any time...

He met the learning needs and directly tore up the drawings, and a burst of unfamiliar information immediately flooded into his mind.

Feel for a moment.

Stab it!

Cheng Shen immediately stretched out his hand to tear off the swollen and pus-filled mass of flesh on his body, and then tore off a tentacle that was covered with elongated eyeballs.

"Help me create a safe zone."

he said to Argeka.

call!
The blazing golden flames suddenly soared, covering a range of five meters around him, and the abyssal energy and dark energy filled in the air were instantly burned away, as if even breathing became difficult.

Cheng Shen immediately switched back to the normal form, holding his breath for a while could not threaten his life, not to mention that he didn't need to breathe in the bright red form.

Hold your breath.

Cheng Shen released a ray of mental power to quickly outline the formation in mid-air.

This is a small refining formation, which was originally depicted on the alchemy workbench, but it is not impossible to use it after leaving the workbench.

Alchemy tools.

It can only increase the user's production success rate to a certain extent.

And there is a slight increase in the quality of the finished product.

But it doesn't mean that potion masters or alchemists become useless people without tools.

At least.

Cheng Shen didn't need to worry about this.

Snapped!
He crushed a piece of energy crystal, and a stream of pure magic power immediately flowed into the formation, making the formation work.

then.

Cheng Shen put three kinds of production materials into it in turn, and extracted the key substances.

Then through the spiritual power to control the three essence substances to fuse.

He is already familiar with this set of steps, and it will become easier as his mental strength becomes stronger.

Ding!
Accompanied by the pleasant reminder, the three materials were slowly fused and formed in the formation, forming a gray candle more than ten centimeters long and about the thickness of a finger.

There are roughly three types of potions.

a kind of oral administration,
a kind of external application,
The first two are for their own use.

And there is another kind of special medicine that should be classified as a consumable item. The lightless candle in front of me is a typical one.

Cheng Shen released his mental power to "ignite" it.

There is no flame.

There is no light.

One of the seven eyeballs inlaid on the candle at different heights opened at this moment, and a strange energy fluctuation spread out from the circular pupil.

Cheng Shen signaled Arjieka to remove the protection.

really.

The surrounding abyssal energy and dark energy can no longer approach him.

"The range of influence is two meters..." Cheng Shenhe calculated the effect of the dark candle, then nodded, "It's enough to last for 15 minutes."

15 minutes isn't that long though.

However, the material cost of making a dark candle is basically negligible.

Only the polluted ore needs to be dropped from monsters, and the other two materials can be cultivated by Cheng Shen himself.

Immediately, he consumed all the materials that he brushed out earlier.

Made 21 Lightless Candles in one go.

enough for a long time.

Keep going.

After eliminating some sporadic monsters on the road and passing through the winding mine tunnel, Cheng Shen led the team into an empty underground mine.

The mine is as wide as three or four football fields connected together, and traces of man-made excavation can be seen. The wooden brackets are placed on the walls and roof of the cave, which seems to be protective measures to prevent collapse.

There are several openings around the mine.

And in the center, an elevator covered by squirming flesh and blood tissue, only a vague outline can be seen.

Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Continuous knocking sounds could be heard from the surroundings. They were monsters with distorted bodies, or they were holding iron picks with only the remaining heads that had not decayed, or they were simply holding hard stones, and slammed them against the wall. Knock randomly.

Their actions do not see any practical significance.

perhaps.

It's just that it still retains the habit of life.

Cheng Shen took a quick look and saw at least seven or eight polluted broods scattered throughout the cave. When they didn't enter the battle, the cysts they produced would hatch into plague bugs the size of human heads with several arthropods.

These plague bugs are true creatures of the abyss.

Not a tainted monster.

But their own combat power is quite limited. The truly terrifying thing is that they can spread the plague through their bodies. However, if they encounter puppets who are not afraid of pollution like the petrified ancestors, they can basically ignore their threats.

"There is a big one, don't disturb it yet."

Cheng Shen glanced at the distance and said.

"Roar!"

The petrified ancestors rushed out immediately. When they were attracting firepower, Cheng Shen switched to the bright red form, continuously shooting blood arrows, and then detonated into blood mist, which slowly spread in the cave.

Burning Blood Poison!

call!
Viscous blood flames attached to every monster and burned.

This immediately aroused their hatred. However, with nine layers of septic frenzy and an output of nearly 17000 points of damage per second, these monsters often just got up and charged, and fell to the ground the next second.

The few polluted broods with blood volumes as high as 10,000+ can only last a few seconds longer.

In a moment, except for the large pollution aggregate entrenched in the mine, all other monsters in the field were cleaned up.

Swish!
The golden light surrounds again.

The state of spiritual travel has a 50% experience bonus. The experience rewards given by these monsters are quite generous. Moreover, the most important thing is that the petrified ancestors do not divide the income, and all the experience is only given to Cheng Shen and Arjieka.

Cheng Shen was directly promoted to level 23.

And Aljieka has no experience status bonus and has also risen to level 22.

After gaining skill points again, Cheng Shen decisively upgraded the Blue Whale Breathing Technique to level five, and increased the mana value of a single meditation session to 13 points.

hum!
The baleen whales swaying golden brilliance swim in his spiritual star sea.

Continuously upgrade.

The special attribute of the blue whale breathing method was also triggered again.

Wisdom +1.

This made Cheng Shen's total basic attributes reach 348 points, but he allocated the four attributes according to the values ​​of 89, 87, 86, and 86.

Wait for the passive to take effect.

His basic attributes were uniformly raised to 89 points.

The most passive attribute that can be balanced through attributes is 9 points, unless its level is raised, but before the level of the blue whale breathing method is not full, Cheng Shen will definitely not use the points for other places.

"Well……"

The burning blood mist has spread to the body of the large polluted body.

It began to squirm, a low growl came from inside, and two huge compound eyes composed of countless eyeballs squeezed out from the bloated and rotten body.

A scarlet beam of light shines like a searchlight.

[Reminder: You are being eroded by the state of chaos... Since your negative resistance is high enough, you have been exempted from this effect! 】

[Reminder: You are being eroded by the plague state... Since your negative resistance is high enough, you have been exempted from this effect! 】

【hint:……】

……

The moment he was illuminated by the beam of light, more than a dozen continuous system prompts came from Cheng Shen's mind!

More than a dozen negative states were superimposed on him, some of which came from the physical level such as plague, poisoning, and bleeding, which were offset by his powerful physique.There is also an impact on the spiritual level.

Fortunately, Cheng Shen's mental strength at this time is not what it used to be.

Up to [-] mental power, even if it can't compare with his blood energy, it is the only strength in the current level!

He shook his head.

Wake up quickly.

Arjieka on the side was hardly affected.

But those petrified ancestors did not have such a strong negative resistance. The moment they were illuminated by the beam of light, they either attacked their companions with red eyes, or stood still in place rigidly.

moment.

Thirty petrified ancestors all lost their ability to fight!

"Well!"

The bloated, rotten monster squirmed its body again, and countless greasy tentacles suddenly emerged from its body, each tentacle was covered with long and narrow scarlet eyeballs, and there was a wise but indifferent divine light in those eyeballs.

boom! !

Several thick tentacles directly smashed the place where Cheng Shen was.

He jumped away one step ahead, his eyes glowed red, and then calmly commanded: "It is accumulating energy and brewing a killer move, be careful to avoid it!"

"Ok!"

Arjeka replied emphatically.

Flying golden divine lines quickly condensed on her forehead, directly putting herself into an explosive state, but facing the monster in front of her, she couldn't use her strongest melee advantage, and could only throw a few flames from a distance.

The main force of the battle still depends on Cheng Shen.

While dodging, he fired blood arrows continuously and bombarded the monster. The frontal attack seemed to be harmless to it, but the blood mist formed by the burst of blood arrows penetrated into its body like a virus!

Burning Blood Poison!

Blood Frenzy!

Also a tainted aggregate proficient in mind control, it is immune to the negative effects of septic frenzy.

But after it is fully stacked, the damage of 17000+ per second is real!

Moreover, the poison of burning blood is also the higher the target's blood volume, the higher the damage it will cause.

Although it cannot cause full damage to the leader unit.

after the cut.

It can also cause tens of thousands of damage per second!
Nearly [-] injuries per second immediately caused the monster's thick blood bar to drop visible to the naked eye.

Whoa!

Its bloated body suddenly cracked a mouth where mucus flowed.

Countless deformed and rotten monsters rushed out of it like a tide. Cheng Shen retreated unhurriedly, and with a glance, the two petrified ancestors who were fighting each other and had already lost their blood immediately froze.

Followed by.

It turned into countless rubble and thick blood mist and exploded instantly!
boom!
boom!
The violent roar shook the entire mine, and the self-destruction of a leader unit was as powerful as a stack of more than a dozen barrels of third-level gunpowder!
Not to mention.

It was five leader-level petrified ancestors who blew themselves up at the same time!
The shock wave that was set off was like a violent hurricane blowing to every corner of the cave in an instant.

Those mobs who had just been summoned just showed their faces and were all swept away!
A petrified ancestor even rushed directly into the monster's body under Cheng Shen's command.

Bang! !

A dull thud.

I saw that already huge monster's body suddenly swelled a circle, and then shrunk again, and countless mud sprayed out from the cracked opening! -
119026! !!
