Chapter 140: 88. Exert energy_2
Translator: 549690339
Noland Lee still had a trump card skill for crossing the Blade Mountain Range. Unfortunately, this skill couldn’t be upgraded, and it was already at its highest level when he obtained it.
Noland Lee looked at his Personal Panel.
He had more than 2400 Energy Points left.
It took 5 points of energy to control five Lost Souls.
Casting “Death Finger” once required 90 points.
Casting “Magic Shield” once required 1 point.
Frightening a target required 1 point.
“Soul Bribery” also required 1 point of energy for each use.
To be on the safe side, Noland Lee decided to reserve over 400 energy points as a backup.
He could consider lowering his energy points only after finding a safe landing place.
Anyway, he shouldn’t expect his energy points to recover automatically in the short term.
“The longer I stay in this Suffering Borderland, the more energy points I will recover automatically, and the greater my loss. I must leave this ghost place as soon as possible.”
Noland Lee patted his chest lightly, feeling the pain in his heart.
Only by drawing dozens of cards in the “Death Spell UP Pool” could he ease the regret in his heart.
It was an excellent opportunity to check out the new skills he had acquired and see if they were worth upgrading while drawing from the card pool.
He brought up “Martyr’s Ten Commandments — Summary,” without hesitation, and invested 1000 energy points.
[System Message: You have consumed 1000 energy points, harmlessly deconstructed “Martyr’s Ten Commandments – Summary. “]
[You still need to invest 3900 energy points to achieve 100% deconstruction completion.]
[In this Harmless Deconstruction, you have achieved the following:]
“Undead Troops Basic Encyclopedia,” 100% completeness.]
“Basic Knowledge of Necromantic Domain Construction,” 100% completeness.]
“Two Construction Methods of Undead Soldier Factory: Bus Type and Soul Axis Type,” 100% completeness.]
“Production Guide and Illustrated Explanation of Elite Undead Troops,” 16% completeness.]
Noland Lee saw a waterfall of system texts appear before him.
These 1000 energy points were absolutely worth it, just for the amount of death-related knowledge books he got, enough to make one’s eyes dizzy. After about ten books of knowledge passed before him, Noland Lee finally caught a glimpse of the death -related spell blueprints!
[System Message: You have acquired three spell blueprints.]
[They are:]
[1. “Spell Blueprint: Limb Reattachment,” 100% completeness.] [2. “Spell Blueprint: Cripple Technique,” 100% completeness.]
[3. “Spell Blueprint: Tracking the Living,” 100% completeness.]
‘”Limb Reattachment Technique’? Is it attaching someone else’s limb to my body? Wouldn’t that turn me into Gresick?”
Noland Lee muttered in his heart and opened the “Limb Reattachment” magic panel.
“Oh well, I was overthinking it. It’s actually a sewing-type death magic that allows the undead to take materials from the surroundings to repair themselves. It’s essentially a healing spell specifically for undead creatures. If the attached limb is strong enough, it can barely be considered a spell for strengthening undead troops.”
Noland Lee shook his head and sighed, then opened the “Cripple Technique” and “Tracking the Living” magic panels.
“These two spells are nice. ‘Cripple Spell’ can forcefully reduce the target’s movement speed. ‘Tracking the Living’ is a magic vision spell that can track living beings within a horizontal distance of 20 meters and a vertical distance of 10 meters; the higher the level, the greater the vision range.”
Noland Lee spent three energy points and learned all three spells.
He activated “Tracking the Living,” and the scene before him instantly faded to grayscale, a monotonous sight composed of black, white, and gray.
And the soldiers in the adjacent and opposite rooms appeared as dark red silhouettes in his field of view.
“This skill is interesting, as it can see through walls, turning me into a real wall hacker. Well, it doesn’t count as hacking if it’s just a little peeking.”
Noland Lee went to the thatched pit and directed his eyes towards the water, shaking his head slightly with a hint of regret:
“The only downside is that my eyes turn pure black without any white when casting this spell. It looks like I’ll need to wear sunglasses or a hood to cover my eyes in the future.”
Noland Lee deactivated “Tracking the Living” but didn’t bother trying the “Cripple Spell.”
Because he was the only one here, he couldn’t cripple himself ..
Noland Lee took a glance at his personal panel, and he still had over 1400 energy points left.
It would be difficult to say whether the three newly acquired skills needed to be upgraded immediately. Anyway, he planned to reserve 400 energy points, so it wouldn’t be too late to upgrade on the spot.
Noland Lee once again accessed the “Death Spell UP Pool,” without hesitation, invested 1000 energy points.
Now, he only had more than 400 backup energy points left on the books.
[System Message: You have consumed 1000 energy points, harmlessly deconstructed “Martyrdom Ten Commandments – Outline.”]’
[You still need to invest 2900 energy points to achieve 100% deconstruction completion.]’
[In this Harmless Deconstruction, you have achieved the following: J’
“Research Report on Undead Monks’ Cultivation Methods,” 32% completeness.]’
“Faith Attribution of Undead Monks, ” 80% completeness.]’ [3. “Extraordinary Path of Undead Monks,” 30% completeness.]’ [4. “How Undead Monks Protect Themselves,” 50% completeness.]’
“Hiss… Have I stumbled upon the Undead Monk’s lair? Why are there so many books about Undead Monks…”
It took a full half a minute for the system to finish broadcasting the results of this Harmless Deconstruction.
Noland Lee’s eyebrows furrowed as he scanned the text waterfall before him..
