Chapter 218: Chapter 197: All-Around Temporary Enhancement, Release of the Minor Forbidden Spell, The Olive Branch of the Imperial Military_2
These are all Minor Forbidden Spells, and while there’s a gap, shouldn’t be a heaven-and-earth difference, right?
“Come on,” Venomous Storm “let’s go!”
For Zi Liyuan, ten different types of extreme poisons were not at all difficult.
Just from the silver hero-grade or higher materials hoarded in his Spatial Backpack, he could produce not just ten types of deadly poisons.
So the casting of the skill did not fail due to a lack of materials.
Still, watching the skill casting bar slowly climb like a snail, Lord Zi felt a stifling frustration in his heart.
Seeing the 300,000 Spiritual Energy values instantly evaporating from his attribute panel, he also had to forcibly suppress his annoyance.
Time ticked away second by second, and the casting bar was eventually filled.
It was in the next instant that the previously still training ground’s dimensional space suddenly whipped up a windstorm.
In the howling wind, a huge cyclone slowly formed, turning into a massive eye of the storm, from which ten balls of greenish light burst forth, shining between heaven and earth.
Almost instantly, the eye of the storm turned a shade of emerald green, and tiny dots of rain began to fall from its center to the ground.
Under the covering of Spirit, the place was shrouded in a misty rain, but in the next instant, the world changed color, and a tornado raged wildly.
At this time, Zi Liyuan discovered he could easily control the Venomous Storm.
With his Spirit controlling the eye of the storm, he could guide its movements continuously.
At the same time, he discovered the attack mechanism of this skill.
The tornado that was the eye of the storm, once it hit a target, would immediately inflict 1,000,000 damage per second, but it would not immediately poison the target.
Outside the tornado, anyone touched by the green rain was certain to be poisoned, and the poison was a combination of all ten extreme poisons!
So you see, this skill is actually divided into two different types of damage, wind elemental and poison elemental damage.
After guiding for a full 30 seconds and replenishing his Spiritual Energy with potions, Lord Zi, experiencing the power of the LV1 “Venomous Storm” skill, decided to break his Spirit connection.
As the Spirit ceases to control the eye of the storm, the eye of the tornado, as if broken by some rule, collapses and dissipates in an instant.
However, the fine green curtain of rain still lingers between heaven and earth, almost like a green mist, covering the area enveloped by his Spirit.
The green mist persisted for ten full seconds before finally clearing away.
“Very good, the poison damage can continue to erode for an extra 10 seconds, quite satisfactory indeed.”
This skill will only get stronger in the latter stages; if one could use some kind of item that blocks perception during casting, keeping the huge accumulation of elemental power concealed, it would undoubtedly be a disaster-level skill for conquering fortresses.
A golden Lord-Grade skill is indeed worthy of being called a Minor Forbidden Spell, powerful!
Satisfied, Lord Zi nodded and then put aside the frustration he felt earlier from the slow progress of the casting bar.
He began to consider how to make use of this skill.
But thinking of the Contribution Value that was about to be depleted, Lord Zi temporarily put aside these thoughts, preparing to first visit the second campus tomorrow and try his luck there.
For now, of course, it was time to return to his villa in the Capital and move the Fan Family Four Sisters along with their laboratory equipment to Zhuangyuan Manor.
Four delicate creatures, all looking exactly the same like enchanting fox spirits, what a feast for the eyes, what multiples of joy?
In this life, ever since Number Two deflowered him, Lord Zi’s true nature had revealed itself, and when it came to certain matters, he had begun to let go.
In a world where the strong feed on the weak, the strong will always prevail, so what’s wrong with taking several concubines?
He was saving them after all, or the Fan Family Four Sisters would’ve long become someone else’s playthings!
After tidying up a bit, with a joyful heart, Lord Zi went straight through the manor’s teleportation point to the gates of Dragon Academy and easily stepped out.
However, before he could head to his own villa, his guiding jade medallion vibrated; someone was contacting him, sending a call request.
Looking at the unfamiliar ID number, Zi Liyuan’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, but he still chose to accept the request.
“Hello, Zi Liyuan, this is Dragon Academy’s first-year campus mission department; the military department has urgently sent you a one-to-one task, please pay attention to the details.”
“`
(。・ω・。)???
Repeated three times, like a broken record, the message played and then the line cut off abruptly, leaving Lord Zi with question marks over his head.
“Damn! A one-on-one urgent assignment from the military department? Since when do I have anything to do with the military department that they’d just send me missions out of the blue?”
Perplexed, Lord Zi, though confused, still opened the guiding jade plaque to check the task information that had appeared.
Kill target: Yohichi Kameden (Affiliated power: Yin Yang Holy Palace)
Target’s location: A certain cave 100 miles west of the Holy Capital (Location secured)
Quest Reward: One Lord Level Dragon Soul Crystal, ten thousand Dragon Academy Contribution Value.
Initially indifferent, it was the last sentence that set Zi Liyuan’s fury ablaze.
At first, he was puzzled as to why the military department would assign him a task, but now it was clear; their target was his woman.
If his woman was bullied, wouldn’t he have to even the score?
Moreover, it was the Wokou, those scum, involved. If he didn’t outright kill them, how could he deter other evil forces?
He hadn’t forgotten that when he first came to the Capital on a levitating airship, it was these birdmen who troubled him and even tried to kidnap him.
With the grudge of being chased and hunted, cursed with hatred, the new and old hatreds mingled together. How could he quell the hatred in his heart without wiping out these Wokou clean?
Just as he was getting ready to pack his things and set off to commit murder and plunder, another message came through.
To be precise, this time it was a letter from the military department to him.
The content was simple, a small promise.
As long as he could submit ten Lord’s Hearts to the military department within half a semester, they would help him clear the Fourth Order Lord Level class change quest without injury, and also provide various resources for his practice afterward, including the basic materials needed for the Sea of Realms.
What a pie in the sky! Lord Zi decided he had to have it.
What an opportunity this was!
He already knew from Uncle Wang how difficult the Fourth Order Lord class change quest was, and the kind of items he had to prepare could not be gathered in half a year even with money.
Rather than that, why not take the olive branch extended by the military department? It was just that later he would have to deal with some troublesome matters for them, right?
Would he be afraid?
Moreover, who would have more accurate information about wild-instance bosses than the military department of the Great Xia Empire guarding the four directions?
As for whether they would give him various wild instances that were extremely difficult to conquer, would he worry about that?
The Undead Sea was already quite sizable, with four top-tier combatants. He didn’t believe he couldn’t beat the various bosses in the wild instances!
As for the ten Lord’s Hearts mentioned by the military department, he really didn’t take it seriously.
It might be a daunting task for others, especially for civilian professions, but for Zi Liyuan, was it even an issue?
Just get a few more wild-instance coordinates from the military department, and wouldn’t the Lord’s Hearts come as long as he had hands?
So, he pushed aside the thought of going back to his villa in the North City District and instead took a detour by car out of the city, heading for the western suburban area.
He wanted to complete this assignment first, after all, the rewards offered were somewhat enticing to him.
When he was ten kilometers away from the Capital, Zi Liyuan felt the restrictions on him dissipate, and without any hesitation, he got out of the car and came to the roadside.
Touching the ground with his magic wand, a huge summoning array formed in front of him.
The mountainous Ridgeback Tortoise slowly stepped through the dimensional gate, arriving before him.
“Old Tortoise, full speed ahead, we’re going to make a killing today.”
With a flip, Lord Zi lightly landed on the somewhat flat and bald head of the old tortoise.
