Spellcasting is a Permanent Addition and My Skills Are All Forbidden Spells

Chapter 50: The wave of monsters is coming, Source Energy Illustrated Book! [Dear gentlemen, please read it later! (ω＼)】

　　【Ding, the sealing stone guardian beast has been killed by you! 】

  【Ding, you killed the sealing stone guardian beast: the pine tree demon, gained experience points +38879, and the source energy limit +2.2! 】

　　【You alone killed the sealing stone guardian beast of the same level or above, and gained free attribute points +28! 】

  【䱱 gained 7 reputation points! 】

The system prompts.

 Killing the pine tree demon brings another 28 points of free attributes.

Lu Cheng moved his mind slightly and controlled the meteors and fire rain.

 Suddenly, the remaining unfired flint turned around and roared towards the settlement sealing stone.

“Bang bang bang bang bang…”

The flint fell and the settlement sealing stone flew away.

 The last flint fell, and the sealing stone was already crumbling.

 “Bang!”

 Lu Cheng added another fireball.

 At this time, the durability of the sealing stone has completely returned to zero.

 “Click…”

A soft sound came from inside the sealing stone, and cracks instantly covered the surface.

A few seconds later, it shattered with a crash.

　　【Ding, you destroyed the settlement sealing stone and got a reward! 】

　　【You have gained free attribute points +20! 】

  【You have gained experience points +100,000 and merit points +2,000! 】

 【Announcement: The settlement sealing stone was destroyed, and everyone in settlement No. 1024 received all attributes +1! 】

  【Settlement hub gains experience value +20%, growth speed +5%! 】

 Along with this system prompt.

In the broken sealing stone, light green light flickered and gathered, condensing into a ball of light, rising into the sky, and flying towards the settlement.

 Finally, it sank into the body of the bronze tree and disappeared.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

The bronze tree sapling shook with moisture, and then began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

　Not long after, it was nearly one meter higher!

The bud on the branch has matured a lot, it is full and ready to bloom.

However, it seems that the last step is missing and it has been delayed in blooming.

 【Warning: The settlement hub reaches 100% experience level 1 and attracts a large number of monsters! A wave of monsters is gathering in the southeast and will attack the settlement in three hours. 】

 【If the defense is successful, the settlement hub will be upgraded to level 2. If the settlement hub is destroyed, the settlement will lose its function. The countdown begins...]

 In the settlement, early warning prompts sounded.

 “Here it comes! The wave of monsters that Lu Shen told us about!”

 “Only three hours? So tight!”

 Everyone was shocked.

However, there was not much panic.

Lu Cheng had explained it before, and they were more or less mentally prepared.

And now, the settlement is covered by land gods and protective shields.

 Compared to the first wave of monsters, I feel a lot more excited!

 In fact, many people have eager eyes.

They all saw the rewards from the last settlement defense battle.

If you can be among the top 100, or even the top 10, on the merit list and get rewards, you might be able to soar into the sky!

“Quickly, call everyone outside and prepare for battle together!”

“Prepare more Origin Stone fragments to replenish the protective shield consumption!”

 “Stick to the same style as last time? Who will be on my team?”

 While chatting in the settlement, everyone quickly arranged their tactics and began to prepare for war.

 And on the other side.

An additional reminder sounded in Lu Cheng's ears.

　　【Ding, your merit value reaches 20,000, and you will receive the merit reward: City Lord Trial Runestones! 】

White light flashed, and a rune stone fell into his hand.

 …

 【City Lord Trial Runestone】

  【Available only if you have the status of acting city lord. 】

　　【After use, the city lord trial task can be activated. If you pass the trial, you will gain the authority of the city lord. 】

  【If not used within three days, the runestones will become invalid. 】

 …

 “The City Lord’s mission is here…”

 Lu Cheng raised his eyes.

 He was not too surprised.

 The content of the reward for earning 20,000 merit points was not a secret in the previous life.

 It’s just that he saved up too quickly.

The settlement has not yet reached the second level, and the city master task has come.

 Shaking his head slightly, Lu Cheng didn't use it.

If you want to gain the authority of the city owner, you must do this task.

 Just, not now. The content of the City Lord’s Trial is random and the time it takes varies.

 At the moment, there are only three hours left for the monster wave, and there is no time.

There is no settlement that is ready to upgrade to level 2 without unlocking the protective shield. Therefore, the main force of this wave of monsters will have a base level of 16.

 With the current combat power of the settlement, it is basically impossible to defend it if he cannot return.

and…

 Lu Cheng's thoughts moved slightly.

 After the City Lord passes the trial, a rating will be assigned.

 The higher the rating, the better the rewards accordingly.

 With three days left, he can definitely increase his combat power before activating the trial.

 Put away the rune stones, Lu Cheng stretched out his hand and activated the Embrace of Source Energy.

 “Refine.”

　　【Ding, after successfully refining the pine tree monster (level 14), you gain the upper limit of source energy +1.9 and the upper limit of health +3. 】

　　【Ding, after successfully refining the pine tree monster (level 14), you gain the upper limit of source energy +1.9 and the upper limit of health +3. 】

 【Ding, successfully refined the pine tree monster (level 14)...

 …

 Soon, the three level 14 monsters were refined, and Lu Cheng turned to the BOSS.

【Ding, if you successfully refine the guardian beast: pine tree demon (level 14), you will get the upper limit of source energy +22, the upper limit of health +35, and the intelligence +3. 】

 A ray of earth-yellow light surged up and submerged into Lu Cheng's body.

The refined pine tree demon actually added three points of intelligence attributes.

 Lu Cheng was about to take back his hand.

 But a system prompt suddenly sounded.

【Ding, the source energy gained from refining has reached 300 points, which has reached the current refining upper limit. You must exceed the upper limit before you can continue to accumulate! 】

 “Has the limit been reached?”

Lu Cheng's mind moved slightly and he checked the panel.

 Previously, his source energy limit was 271 points.

 Along the way, I killed monsters and refined the pine tree demon, and I actually reached the upper limit.

But fortunately, after the upper limit is exceeded, accumulation can continue.

 Glancing at the Embrace of Source Energy column, Lu Cheng was happy.

This way of breaking through the upper limit is much simpler than he thought.

You only need to absorb a thousand Source Stone fragments and fill yourself with Source Energy to break through.

In other words, a total of only 1,300 Origin Stone fragments are needed...

 Lu Cheng touched the ring on his hand.

 Suddenly, a large number of Origin Stone fragments appeared in his hands.

Holding the Origin Stone fragments, Lu Cheng's mana flowed in his hands and was quickly absorbed.

 A moment later.

 The source stone crystal fragments have been absorbed.

System prompts will follow.

　　【Ding, the breakthrough is successful! The upper limit of refining has been increased to one thousand points, and you can continue to accumulate source energy! 】

　　【Ding, the source energy embrace refining has exceeded the upper limit once, and the source energy illustrated book is unlocked! 】

  【Current number of illustrations entered: 3, bonus: 0. 】

 “Source Energy Illustrated Book?”

Lu Cheng's heart moved and he looked up.

 I saw that under the original column of Embrace of Source Energy, there was an extra line of [Source Energy Illustrated Book].

As he gazed, the Source Energy Illustrated Book unfolded into a curtain of light.

 …

  【Yuan Neng Illustrated Book】

 【0-turn illustrated book: 1 picture】

 【Iron-eating black ant queen】

  【Level 10, sealing stone guardian beast. 】

　　【Inferior monsters born due to the advent, have no wisdom, no origin, and have not yet reached the star level in combat power. 】

 …

 【1-turn illustrated book: 2 pictures】

  【Pine Tree Demon】

  【Level 14, sealing stone guardian beast. 】

　　【Inferior monsters born due to the advent, have no wisdom, no origin, and have not yet reached the star level in combat power. 】

 …

　　【Level 15, Secret Realm BOSS. 】

　　【Originally a human being, he was cursed by the gods due to the destruction of the settlement hub. He was assimilated with the settlement sealing stone and descended into the secret realm. His wisdom has dissipated and his combat power has not reached the stars. 】

 …

"This is…"

 Looking across the Source Energy Illustrated Book, Lu Cheng's eyes lit up.

Today is Tuesday, please catch up on reading, please! (*/ω＼*)
