Mythical Card Master: Start with the Knight

In reality, the incense burned out, the spiritual crystal dimmed, and the spiritual sand burned into ashes unconsciously.

After a long time, Chu Ming opened his eyes, and a divine light flashed through his eyes.

【Wizard Narender】

[Quality: Purple☆]

[Race: Human Race]

[Skills: Spiritual Perfection, one hundred and forty-eight runes (63 types: Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine, Weaver's Dream, Realm of Annihilation, Activation Stimulation, All-Type Set, Life Set, Equipment Making Set)]

"Is this what an official epic wizard feels like?"

Chu Ming's mind just started to work for a moment, and his abundant mental power was like a surging river. He felt that even if he released the ultimate witchcraft dozens of times in a row, his mental power would not be exhausted.

After sensing the changes in the spiritual sea, he was pleasantly surprised to find that there were two hundred more mental load slots that could be imprinted with runes.

If all these mental load slots are filled, his ultimate sorcery might be able to exceed ten figures.

However, Chu Ming knew very well that simply increasing the number of extreme witchcraft was useless. If he wanted to break through the upper limit, he had to find a way to break through the limit witchcraft.

In fact, after two years of exploration, he already has some ideas on how to break through the limits, so he does not plan to use these rune slots at the moment.

After cleaning up the ground, Chu Ming came to the backyard.

He wanted to know how witchcraft would change after his spiritual power broke through the epic. The best way was to try it himself.

"call……"

Chu Ming exhaled, and the water vapor quickly turned into white mist in the cold air.

A weaver's dream.

The spider thread was pulled out of the dream by him, and gradually turned from illusion into reality.

Chu Ming tore it apart a little and found that due to the concentration of mental power, the toughness of the spider silk had indeed improved a lot, but the change was not huge.

He didn't stop, the runes in his heart were linked, and another extreme witchcraft was released.

Activating stimulus.

The activation power fell on the spider silk, and the white spider silk began to twitch as if it had life.

Chu Ming just shot the spider silk forward, and the spider silk immediately sank into the stone. As he pulled his arm, the silk thread reflected a faint light in the sun, and the stone split into two halves.

There was some surprise on his face, "The amplification ability of activation stimulation seems to be much stronger."

After continuing the experiment in the backyard for a while, he was ready to leave.

Because he and Edel had agreed that today they would go to the dark forest to explore for traces of dark creatures, mark dangerous creatures, and prepare to open up the dark land.

Taking back the spider silk, Chu Ming put on his gray robe and walked towards the wizard tower through the thin snow.

Before going to the dark forest, he planned to visit Allen first and ask about the current situation of the Wizard Tower.

In order to prepare for the breakthrough of the meditation method, he has not gone out for more than ten days in a row. He is no longer very clear about what happened outside and the situation in the Wizard Tower.

Walking on the path paved with stone bricks, wizard apprentices walked together along the way. After seeing Chu Ming, the apprentices were all stunned and quickly lowered their heads and called Mr. Narender.

Chu Ming nodded in response and walked into the wizard tower.

Compared with the Border Wizard Tower, his Wizard Tower is more than twice as big, and the number of floors is higher than that of an ordinary Wizard Tower, with about twenty floors.

Below the seventh floor of the Wizard Tower are basically the living and study areas for apprentices. The eighth to fifteenth floors are some laboratories and areas where wizards live. The fifteenth floor and above are where epic wizards and senior spiritual wizards live. .

In fact, Chu Ming has a laboratory on the twentieth floor, but he finds it troublesome and rarely goes there. He usually stays in the wizard's cabin.

In fact, Allen mentioned to him recently that with the increase in wizards and apprentices, the carrying capacity of the wizard tower has reached its limit. He said that he wanted to discuss with the Kutz family to build a larger wizard tower.

Chu Ming naturally agreed, but he wanted to build the wizard tower near the dark forest, preferably near the crystal veins.

In this way, the wizards can not only monitor the dark forest, but also guard the crystal veins to avoid any accidents.

Part of the reason why he and Edel were rushing to explore the Dark Forest was to build a new wizard tower as quickly as possible.

Chu Ming went up the spiral staircase and soon reached the sixteenth floor.

At this time, Suraya came towards him. After seeing Chu Ming, she quickly saluted and said, "Sir Narender, why are you here?"

Chu Ming smiled and said, "I came to see Allen. Where is he now?"

Suraya thought for a while and brought Chu Ming to a laboratory. "He should still be meditating inside."

"Trouble."

Saying goodbye to Suraya, Chu Ming knocked on the door.

"Alan, it's me."

After a while, a voice came from inside, and Allen opened the door. He was stunned for a moment, and then asked doubtfully: "Narender, have you made a breakthrough?"

Chu Ming nodded, walked into it, and asked, "Did anything happen during the past few days when I was away?"

Allen came to the table, took out some letters and handed them to Chu Ming.

"Recently, there has been news from the nearby Earl of Jones that because the crystal mine was attacked by a dark wizard, production will be reduced for a period of time."

"The towns in the southern border have also suffered large-scale attacks by dark wizards. The aberrant plague has spread throughout the southern border. The royal capital has sent knights to suppress the dark wizard movement. The Life Church has also taken action and sent many priests."

"The activities of dark wizards have also affected some wizard tower forces, and even wizards have begun to launch large-scale encirclement and suppression activities in the southern border."

"I believe it won't be long before the dark wizard activities calm down."

Chu Ming glanced at the letter and frowned, "Are all dark wizards so rampant now?"

Allen smiled bitterly and said: "It's good that our wizard tower is guarding the northern border. Dark wizards don't dare to mess around."

"But there are not many epic wizards in the southern region, and it has become a paradise for dark wizards."

"And now the production of crystal ore in the Earldom of Jones has also been greatly reduced. Our development speed may be slowed down a lot."

Hearing this, Chu Ming patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Today I will go to the dark forest with Edel to explore. If nothing happens, starting tomorrow, we can start to explore the dark land."

"With five epics, it shouldn't be a problem to push the border to the Tianqi Mountains in a month."

"And there is a mine dug by the Truth Society in the crystal veins. It only needs a little repair and reinforcement before it can be put into use."

"The territory should be able to produce the first batch of crystals in two months."

Allen nodded, the worry on his face lessened a little, and he hoped: "As long as we give us a few more years, the number of epic wizards can double again, and by then we will be able to learn to fight against the truth. of strength."

After chatting with Allen for a while, Chu Ming asked about his practice progress. After learning that his meditation practice had reached the deep blue level, Chu Ming taught him some practice experience, and then because he had to rush to the dark forest, Didn't stay any longer.

In fact, he is not as optimistic as Allen.

The reason why they are able to develop so smoothly now is actually because the Truth Society does not understand the new wizard system and does not regard them as a threat.

But they have been developing for more than two years now, and the rune equipment made by spiritual wizards must have been spread to the hands of black wizards. They also know more about spiritual wizards, so naturally they cannot just let them develop.

So the best way now is to open up the dark land and expand the territory to the foot of the Tianqi Mountains before the dark wizard can react.

The land developed during this period can be turned into farmland to ensure food supply.

Then reopen the crystal mine to maintain the supply of the most important wizard resources.

In this way, they can achieve self-sufficiency even if they face the threat of dark wizards.

Riding on his war horse, Chu Ming galloped all the way and soon arrived at the camp on the border of the Dark Land.

After entering the camp, rows of witch knights wearing rune belts passed in front of him and began patrolling along the border.

Under the guidance of the knight, Chu Ming walked into a wooden house.

At this time, Edel was sitting honestly at the table, drawing something on the notes with a quill.

After Chu Ming entered the room, he quickly caught Edel's attention. He raised his head and smiled: "Narende, it's not like you to be so punctual."

The reason why Edel teases Chu Ming like this is because Chu Ming often has no sense of time when conducting experiments, even if several days have passed outside.

I even agreed to attend a wizard's banquet once, but was two days late.

Chu Ming coughed a few times and said seriously: "Ahem, I happened to have some breakthroughs in meditation today, so I rushed here."

Narender moved his hands for a moment, and said in a somewhat depressed tone: "I originally wanted to show you off that I have achieved breakthroughs in the Knight's Secret Technique and Meditation Technique..."

Chu Ming smiled and said: "You should be the only one who can practice the knight's secret method and the wizard's meditation method together to such a high level."

"That's true." Edel touched his nose, picked up the notes on the table and handed them to Chu Ming, "This is a rough border map I drew, ranging all the way to the Tianqi Mountains."

"If you want to investigate, it's best to follow the route above."

Chu Ming looked at it carefully for a while, and after finding no problems, he nodded, "Then let's get started."

After Edel put on the armor, the two entered the dark forest together again after two years.

However, in order to quickly explore the entire area, the two did not hide their traces and quickly shuttled through the forest.

Then the territories of dark creatures were marked one after another and marked with danger levels.

Since the dark giant left this area two years ago, Edel has never discovered the existence of such terrifying creatures when he patrolled the forest. The highest-level dark creature in the forest is only one-star epic, even if Chu Ming He can easily solve it without taking action.

"Red Water Bone Crocodile, one-star epic, highly dangerous..."

"Three-headed dragon lizard, one-star epic, highly dangerous..."

The Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine quickly traveled through the forest, passing through the territories of dark creatures one after another. The two marked down the information about the epic creatures they encountered along the way.

When night came, after killing an unknown number of dark creatures, the two finally completed their exploration work and returned to the camp.

If you want to open up a dark land, you must first deal with the dark creatures inside. When the number of dark creatures is less than a certain size, the dark land will collapse on its own and turn back into an ordinary forest.

But the process of the Dark Land's self-disintegration may take several years, and Chu Ming and the others cannot afford to wait.

If you want to eliminate them quickly, it is best to cut down the black trees in the forest and reorganize the forest.

In this way, they only need to mark the epic creatures that pose a threat, and other dark creatures will be dealt with in the process of deforestation.

…

the next day.

Chu Ming and Edel waited in the camp for a while, and Alan, Claire and Suraya also rushed over from the wizard tower.

After meeting with Chu Ming, Allen asked: "How is the situation in the dark forest?"

Edel smiled and said: "The most powerful ones inside are just some weaker epic creatures. One month should be enough."

Chu Ming looked up at the sunlight pouring down. The runes in the spiritual sea were connected, the ground shook, and the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine emerged from the ground.

"Let's go."

Everyone nodded, and Allen took out the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine. The ground shook again, and another Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine appeared on the spot.

Several people walked on the back of the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine together and walked deep into the forest.

After everyone disappeared, the knights guarding the camp heard loud rumblings in the forest, and then tragic howls rang out.

The knights looked at each other and swallowed their saliva, "From what Master Edel said, it seems that the other three adults are as epic as Mr. Narender."

A knight sighed: "I remember that before Lord Narender came, we were still worried about the dark wizards and the beast tide. I didn't expect that we would be able to open up the dark land now."

Several passing witch knights heard this and said with a smile: "Under the leadership of Lord Narender and Master Edel, the territory will get better and better."

…

In the forest, black mist surged, and the arrogant actions of Chu Ming and others quickly attracted the attention of a large number of dark creatures.

Under the leadership of epic creatures, dark creatures have a faint tendency to form a beast tide.

Chu Ming's eyes flashed slightly and he shouted to Edel: "Edel, it's time to take action."

Edel nodded solemnly and raised the sword in his hand.

The white light burned like a flame, and dots of purple light suddenly appeared in mid-air.

At this time Chu Ming extended his right hand to Edel.

Activate and stimulate!

A strong stimulation was transmitted into Edel's spirit. His eyes widened, his muscles flexed, and his mental power poured out. The purple light spots around him instantly expanded into a ball of light like an inflated balloon.

"Roar!!"

Everyone stopped attacking the beast tide, Edel shouted, and the purple light ball floated deep into the forest.

"burst!"

Purple light exploded on the head of the beast tide, and the ghost flame wave swept down, instantly igniting all dark creatures.

"Ouch..."

The attack of the beast tide suddenly stopped. Many dark creatures were in the will-o'-the-wisp explosion, and their spiritual sea instantly collapsed and died directly. The remaining dark creatures also felt uncomfortable and fell to the ground dying, with the blood in their eyes gradually disappearing.

After performing the witchcraft, Edel was mentally exhausted and physically exhausted.

The white light of the long sword in his hand flashed slightly, constantly restoring his mental power. However, depending on the situation, his mental power would not be restored for a while.

After a while, another wave of beasts rushed over. In the middle of the beast wave, several epic-level creatures roared and released their bloodline talents to attack everyone.

In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook, and the ground surged like an earth dragon.

Seeing this, Chu Ming stretched out his right hand towards the beast tide, the white light of the gauntlet flashed, and an old and corrupt aura expanded from all around.

The realm of annihilation!

As the darkness fell, the dark creatures stopped one after another, a large amount of blood spilled from their bodies, and their mental and physical strength began to decline significantly.

Chu Ming did not stop, and another extreme witchcraft appeared from his hand.

Activate and stimulate!

"Roar!!!"

The smell of corruption became stronger and more disgusting, and the blood on the dark creatures overflowed faster. In their confused eyes, their bodies gradually fell apart and turned into black dust scattered on the ground.

Several epic creatures felt the fatal threat, and the blood in their eyes gradually faded away, and they fled backwards.

It's just that it's too late to run now. Allen waved his staff, and the demonic dragon vines rose up and attacked them.

Claire and Suraya also released the ultimate witchcraft customized by Chu Ming for them.

Ring of Boiling Fire!

Stone Vine Giant!

Claire stamped his feet on the ground, and the raging fire expanded from his feet and turned into a circle of fire that boiled like boiling water.

"Ouch!!"

Amid the wails of the dark creatures, the black trees were set on fire one after another, and a fire soon spread to the herd.

At this time, a stone giant with vein-like vines on its body took a few steps, crossed the fire, and jumped on the head of the epic creature.

"Roar!"

The stone vine giant roared and tore off the head of a red water bone crocodile.

After seeing that the dark creatures were basically eliminated, the black screen shrank back, and the runes in Chu Ming's spiritual sea reconnected.

Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine!

Activate and stimulate!

He waved his hand, and the ground shook violently. The Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine, twice as big as it was, rose into the sky and swallowed an epic creature directly into the mouth of the abyss. Then its thick and long body penetrated into the soil, and its body surged like a giant... The earth dragon.

A few minutes later, all five epic creatures died, and the area was cleared of dark creatures.

Crossing out the red dots on the map, Chu Ming looked at Claire, "Burn all the black trees here. They will become nutrients for the farmland."

Claire nodded, the staff in his hand flashed with white light, and the flames formed a circle and spread outward under his feet.

After the flames came into contact with the black tree, they burst into flames. The black mist in the air made a sizzling sound when it came into contact with the flames, and a disgusting smell spread.

If it were an ordinary flame, after igniting the black tree, it would probably be extinguished by the surrounding black mist within a few seconds, and it would not be able to cause a fire at all.

But this is extreme witchcraft. The flame is controlled by the mind. As long as Claire's spirit is not exhausted, the surrounding flames can continue to burn.

Ten minutes later, the area in front of everyone was only scorched black, and even the corpses of dark creatures had been roasted.

"Go on, today's goal is to clear three areas, and this is just the first one."

With that said, Chu Ming waved his right hand, and the Demon Skeleton Dragon Vine rose from the ground again. Everyone stepped on the back of the Dragon Vine and moved towards the next area.
