I want to be the Grand Duke of the Abyss

Chapter 4 True Name Osiris
[Dead Soul Harvest: This natural talent can absorb the soul power of nearby dead units. The absorption effect depends on the degree of damage caused.The current absorbable area is 10 meters. 】

"Huh? In the past, you could only absorb a single unit that was actively killed, but now you can harvest any unit that dies within a radius of 10 meters?"

Jiang Fan was extremely pleasantly surprised.

Even if no damage is caused and the absorption efficiency is low, it is still a source of extra experience points for nothing.

"Fat, big, big!"

No wonder he was so excited, you know, this is a bottomless abyss.

Chaos and evil are the symbols here!
Death and destruction are the prelude here!
War and killing are the norm here!
Throughout the many planes of the Abyss, fierce fighting and fighting are taking place all the time.Demons use their weapons, spells and even their bodies to destroy all creatures they consider weak.

To devour, to plunder.

Turn it into nourishment for your own evolution.

What this means now is that as long as Jiang Fan is close to any killing scene, he can absorb experience from the bodies of dead units.

In addition, Jiang Fan directly extracts the invisible soul power, and unlike the Devouring Specialty, the absorbing action will not be too obvious and lead to being caught stealing chickens.

Judging from the description of this prompt, the scope should be able to be expanded in the future.Jiang Fan has already begun to long for the scene when his talent aura covers the entire abyss plane, and he can level up every day while lying down.

Wiping the corners of his mouth, Jiang Fan continued to look at the panel.

"The template has been upgraded from ordinary to elite. Are we now considered blue monsters?"

The main quest has also started!

Jiang Fan can see the benefits of improving the template at a glance.

The attribute values ​​obtained for each upgrade have changed from +1 for all attributes to +3 for strength and agility, and +5 for physique, spirit and will, which is basically in line with the growth path of the Night Demon clan.

In addition, the bonus coefficient of health and magic value has also been increased to 50.

Hard!

"The benefits of the elite templates are already so terrifying, wouldn't the rare elites and commander templates behind them be even better? As for the lords?"

Jiang Fan admitted that he was moved.

No, I want to be an archduke too!
I want to be the boss too!

"and many more?"

"Real name. Osiris!?"

Jiang Fan couldn't help but look startled when he looked at a piece of information on the panel that was easily overlooked.

True names are different from names and cannot be read in the common language of ordinary creatures such as humans.

Even the most knowledgeable occult scholars have to struggle to read the chaotic characters of these true names.Of course, Jiang Fan, as a purebred night devil, would have no trouble doing so after he was proficient in devil language.

Demonic language is originally a Chaos character.

Basically all extraordinary creatures will be very careful to hide their real names.

Firstly, it is to prevent other creatures from knowing the true name and then using some means to control themselves; secondly, it is also to prevent being attacked by some curses that can be realized through the true name.

Some powerful Lao Liu can kill enemies from a distance.

In his previous life, Jiang Fan had seen similar props on the forum. After knowing the true name of a high-level creature, he could impose a powerful curse on it.

In addition, true names also have other extraordinary and important functions for extraordinary creatures.

Jiang Fan has already learned that if the temple profession in Allen Continent wants to practice divine arts, they must know the true name of the god they believe in.

Temple professions are generally true believers of gods.

On weekdays, by silently reciting the true name of the deity you believe in, you can perform various prayers and rituals and accumulate the power of faith.In return, the gods will grant blessings and strength to devout believers.This includes powerful magic.

When the extraordinary creature's strength reaches a certain level, it will condense its true name. The stronger the extraordinary creature, the longer the bytes of its true name will be.

The gods are just more powerful extraordinary creatures.

Among high-level creatures, the most commonly used part is often the part of their true name, or their personal name.

Such as "Skullbreaker", "Scarlet Reaper", "Fist of Justice" and so on.

Jiang Fan's current strength is not yet able to have his own personal name, but being able to condense a true name is already much better than in his previous life.

Not only did he not have a real name in his previous life, but because he had never advanced to legend before time travel, he didn't even get a battle name.

Although there is a recognized title on the player forum, it is only a title within the player group and has not been recognized by the strong indigenous people in Allen Continent.

Without the blessing of reputation and legend, it cannot be done truly.

Therefore, he was very surprised to be able to condense a section of his true name in just one step after traveling through time.

"Osiris."

"Translated, it seems to symbolize the power of death and destruction in Allen Continent." Jiang Fan thought about the memories of his previous life. Out of his passion and persistence for games, he always liked to go to the library to read books about Allen Continent in his previous life. Books, so I have dabbled in some obscure knowledge.

"It seems that the condensation of my true name in the first quarter is also related to my natural talent."

The condensation of true names does not occur randomly.

According to the information that Jiang Fan had access to in his previous life, some of it was due to the improvement of individual strength that triggered relevant rules, and some was due to various causes and consequences of his own bloodline and talent.

The game had only been in operation for three years before the time travel, and the results achieved by player forces were not impressive compared to the indigenous NPCs in Allen Continent.

The game launch time is still a little short.

Players have not been able to go too far in the high-level level, which has led to Jiang Fan not having a thorough understanding of higher-level things.Now in this situation, he can only rely on his intuition and guessing.

Fortunately, these are not urgent tasks. With Jiang Fan's current strength, he is not yet qualified to explore these secrets.For him now, his real name will not improve his strength, but will have a greater symbolic meaning.

Not only that, he now has to be even more careful about hiding his real name.

"From now on, I will call myself Jiang Fan to the outside world, and I will change it after I unlock more real names."

[Skeleton Scythe: can be upgraded, the Night Demon Clan’s inherited equipment.The physical damage effect is increased by 5(+)%, and the spell damage effect is increased by 10(+)%. When using Night Demon skills to attack, there is a 5% chance of having a mental pollution effect, triggering a certain degree of mental damage]

The Skeleton Scythe is a bone staff, the staff is full of texture and uneven.At the top is a scythe mixed with mithril. In the settings of the previous life "Gods", this was a reward that represented the Night Demons being favored by the will of the abyss.

There are many races in the abyss that are favored by the will of the abyss and receive inheritance rewards.

For example, the Night Demon Clan's Skeleton Scythe, the Succubus Clan's Desire Whip, the Earth Demon Clan's Rock Spear, etc.

Compared with creatures from other planes in the multiverse, the powerful demon clan not only does not need to make their own weapons, but the characteristics of their inherited items are more suitable for them.

However, this kind of inheritance reward weapon is only available to the demon clan that evolved from the lemure. Young demons who are born with true demon blood will not receive any rewards.

You can't bring a whip out of your mother's womb, right?

"It's just. Why can't I just advance to the next level and not have a career for me to choose? Where is my career?"

Jiang Fan suppressed the doubts in his heart, put away the panel, and looked up at a little lemure not far away.

Now that his bloodline level has been improved, the abyssal aura leaking out is much stronger than before. These evil demons sensed it and no longer dared to attack Jiang Fan.

Instead, they will try their best to avoid it.

Unless he is seriously injured and his aura is extremely weak, only a bold lemure will dare to take risks.

For creatures of the abyss, confusion does not mean that they are mentally retarded.

[Spiritual Shock]!
Jiang Fan casually waved the Skeleton Scythe, and an invisible spiritual wave swept through him. The little evil demon suddenly trembled, then lost his breath and fell stiffly to the ground.

[Hit the enemy, causing damage 140]

[Kill the lemure, experience +12, soul coin +1]

Spike!

Although the experience value was reduced to only 12 points, there was no need to probe. Just looking at the size of this lemure, Jiang Fan knew that it was not a newly hatched level 2 lemure.

But the mental shock still achieved a one-hit kill.

"It is indeed a powerful skill!"

Jiang Fan was excited and satisfied with the power of the mental shock.

As a unique skill of the Night Demons, spiritual shock is silent and extremely lethal, acting directly on the soul.Ordinary spell resistance and protective equipment can't resist it at all, so he has been jealous of many old silver coins in his previous life.

It's just that if there is no Night Demon blood in the body, it cannot be understood, and one can only seek other spiritual skills with similar effects.

Jiang Fan thought about it briefly, and considering that other active skills would appear in the future, and the panel only gave a mere 5 skill points after advancement, Jiang Fan was not in a hurry to upgrade his skills.

Anyway, with long-term use, the skill level can be improved, and skill points are much more precious in comparison.

For him, the top priority was to leave the novice village on the bank of the Styx River and quickly find a city to understand what the current situation was so that he could make further plans.

Always wandering around in this primitive place, with few resources aside, he is basically no different from being isolated from the world.

Moreover, after obtaining the Demonic Spell Specialization, he had to go to the city to find a suitable spell book to learn skills.

Demonic spell specialization only allows Jiang Fan to have a general second-level spell slot. As for the specific spell skills, he has to find a spell book to learn and understand.

"Fortunately, I got some soul coins from killing lemures and skeletons during this period, otherwise I wouldn't have the money to buy skill books when I entered the city." Jiang Fan sighed secretly in his heart: "These poor brothers, I'm afraid they can't even upgrade now." It’s also difficult to continue providing experience points.”

On the banks of the River Styx, because only low-level demons were hatched, apart from sporadic dark creatures, there were only demon worms and little lemures.

For his current level, if he hunts these low-level creatures, the power of the abyss and the power of the soul obtained will be suppressed to very little by the rules, and the experience value will be out of the question.

This is also a rule formed by the will of the abyss to prevent high-level creatures from needlessly massacring low-level creatures.

He could only arrive at an abyss city first, find out the situation, and then seek a new leveling map.After considering his next step, Jiang Fan no longer hesitated and prepared to leave for a nearby big city.
