As she spoke, she took out a bell and a container of ashes in a fist-sized container from her bosom.
"The Soul-Summoning Bell and the ashes of a lone wolf. The Soul-Summoning Bell can use the ashes as a medium to summon the souls of those who have not returned to the Golden Tree to assist in battle."
"Use it as you wish. Sorry to bother you, Faded One, I..."
Seeing that Lani was about to leave, Zicomo quickly spoke up to stop her.
"Wait a minute! Madam, may I do something for you?"
Lani paused.
"Oh? Don't you Faded Ones obey the Two Fingers and work for them? Why do you want to work for me, or do you have ulterior motives for approaching me?"
“You misunderstand, um... I don’t have a finger witch. So the Golden Law and all that are irrelevant to me.”
(Melina, secretly observing: I'm not human!)
“Interesting. I didn’t expect you to be so free. Savor the taste of the borderlands for now. If we meet again, you’ll work for me then. Interesting fading… no, Zicomo. Remember, my real name is Lani, someone who is searching for a path into the darkness.”
After saying this, she transformed into specks of moonlight and vanished into the air.
P.S.: My new book is launching, and I hope all my readers will support it! Please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions in the comments section. Thank you so much for your support!!!
Chapter Six manifests again, System: This is too much for me!
Zicomo was slightly disappointed, not expecting that he would still have to go to the Three Sisters Tower to unlock Lani's main storyline.
However, this doesn't have much impact on him, since he hasn't even defeated the Tree Guardians yet.
Having previously defeated the limb-splitting noble and cleared out a wave of ruins before the level, he had accumulated enough runes to level up five times in a row. Without hesitation, he added all of them to Spirit. As for the other attributes, he would improve them by taking damage in the Twelve Trials.
To do something well, you must first have the right tools. Zicomo headed south from the blessing point before the checkpoint, intending to get his hands on the meteorite staff first.
When he played through the game for the first time, he was tortured to death by all kinds of monsters. Only after checking the walkthrough did he realize that there was a beginner's artifact called the Meteor Staff.
This thing, when used in conjunction with the Rock spell, allows you to summon three giant rocks from a distance and smash them into the enemy, potentially even stunning them. It's practically invincible.
Zikomo enjoyed the scenery along the way as he made his way toward the Dragon's Breath Ruins, occasionally unleashing a couple of Radiant Stone Shards or Radiant Stone Curves to harvest a wave of runes.
Unlike in the game, his mana slowly regenerates after being depleted. The Twelve Trials greatly enhance his regeneration speed. Throughout his journey, he hasn't even needed to use mana potions to replenish his mana.
But Zicomo always felt like he had forgotten something.
"Hiss... What did I forget? Let me sort it out."
"I need to get the Meteor Staff and the Rock Spell, which requires passing through the traps in the Dragon's Breath Ruins."
"Dragon's Breath Ruins, dragon, dragon's breath?"
Zicomo felt the sky suddenly darken, followed by a wave of heat coming from behind him.
"Damn it! I forgot there's a dragon here! Akir, the dragon of the Ganlin clan!"
It's not entirely Zicomo's fault for overlooking the existence of the dragon Agil. In the game, combat with Agil is only triggered when you reach a specific location.
Now that it is a real creature, it will naturally leave its nest to forage for food.
The sea of fire covering an area of a thousand meters blocked his vision and continued to burn his life points. He couldn't even find the dragon if he wanted to fight.
Despite the burning pain, Zicomo spurred his horse and galloped off in one direction.
"Now we can only try to slip away first."
But as he ran, he felt the pain in his body getting lighter and lighter, and the rate at which his health was decreasing was slowing down. By the time he reached the edge of the sea of fire, the rate of decrease had slowed down to about the same as that of being poisoned.
"That's right! I have twelve trials, why should I run? I'll just charge at them!"
Having escaped the inferno, Zicomo downed a bottle of red Dettol and began searching for Yaquil.
Fortunately, it was standing right in front of Zikomo, presumably waiting for the fire to die down before feeding on its burned prey.
"Unfortunately, I'm sorry to disappoint you!"
Zikomo locked onto Akir's wings and raised his hand to unleash a brilliant arc slash at the base of the wings.
He must first disable its ability to fly to prevent the dragon from escaping.
Agitated by the attack, Yakir roared in anger and swung his claws at the small reptile in front of him.
Instead of retreating, Zikomo advanced, rolling over to Yakiel's belly.
"Hehe, big body but weak chrysanthemum, take this double hit of my Brilliant Stone!"
The pyroxene magic gravel and the pyroxene arc collided with local areas of Yakil one after the other.
Yakir roared repeatedly, and the entire dragon leaped up and slammed heavily into the ground.
Zicomo had anticipated this, and summoned Torret to quickly move away from Aquil, beginning his fun kiting style of play.
Akiel, whose wings had been injured by Zikomo, could only chase after him on the ground.
Zikomo deliberately targeted weaknesses, relentlessly attacking Akiel's eyes.
Akiel tried to unleash a dragon's breath, but as soon as it opened its mouth, it was met with a double attack of sapphire.
In the end, Yakiel collapsed in frustration.
Seeing this, Zicomo quickly stepped forward and tried to put Akiel into his inventory.
"Shh!"
Akiel vanished into thin air and reappeared in Zikomo's inventory.
"It worked! Just as I expected."
Zicomo had previously asked the system why the defeated monsters disappeared, leaving only the items behind.
The system's response was that they returned to the Golden Tree, and as the faded ones who helped them return, the Golden Tree would leave items as a reward for them.
Isn't this just an alternative Teyvat ley line?
Zicomo didn't know how the other Faded Ones stored their items, but he was a man with a system!
By storing the monster's corpse in the inventory to prevent the Golden Tree from returning to its original state, he can obtain the complete monster materials!
This is the corpse of a dragon! Even in the Harry Potter world, it would be a rare find.
He can achieve financial freedom by selling his shares in Diagon Alley.
[System notification: If the host wishes to extract items from the game into reality, a manifestation attempt will be consumed.]
"Okay, okay, please help me remove the dragon's heart first. I need to go to the Dragon's Sacrifice Church to learn skills later."
[Instructions received, stripped.]
"By the way, I killed a dragon, didn't you achieve anything?"
【…】
[Congratulations, host, on achieving the achievement: The Dragon Slayer]
[Reward: Title 'Dragon Slayer', Manifestation Count *1]
[Dragon Slayer: 10% bonus damage against dragons, upgradable (1/10)]
Looking at the title before him, Zicomo had an urge to rush out and clear out the Dragon Tomb as soon as he got the beginner's artifact. But considering the sheer number and strength of the dragons, he temporarily dismissed the idea.
At this time, the dragons living in the Dragon Tomb were unaware that their death was not far off.
There's not much to say about the rest of the journey.
Run to the underground room of Dragonbreath Ruins, and use the trap fog to teleport to the Corrupted Lakes of Galid.
After acquiring the Meteor Staff and the Rock spell, Zikomo found a Blessed spot near the Lake of Corruption and began farming Crimson Corruption resistance.
What? You mean there's also the Traveler's Set near the Meteor Staff? Of course, I took that too.
However, as we all know, the clothes in the old man's ring are not important; on the contrary, it is very important to dress like a human being during cutscenes.
Speaking of clothes, Zicomo has to thank the fact that the equipment in the old man's ring world doesn't have a durability attribute, otherwise he would have been walking around naked back in Dragonbreath Ruins.
He first immersed himself in the lake of decay, letting the crimson corruption continuously corrode his body.
Once your health is low, start drinking Red Drops. After you finish drinking them, run back to the Blessing Point to replenish your Drops energy.
He didn't end his long bath until several hours later, when the crimson decay could no longer erode his body.
To be honest, the feeling of being corroded by the scarlet corruption was not painful; on the contrary, it was a tingling, light feeling all over the body.
It's like accidentally eating a poisonous mushroom in Yunnan, and you feel like you're ascending to heaven.
No wonder these Scarlet Cultists, disregarding Millison's wishes, wanted to turn her into a corrupt Scarlet cult leader and create their own god.
After soaking in the Lake of Corruption, Zicomo's physical condition increased by 15 points; his magic power also increased by 10 points.
Even the spirit was boosted by 8 points in order to resist the erosion of the scarlet corruption.
Adding the benefits from bathing in the dragon's breath, his current in-game stats are:
[Physique: 47]
【Spirit: 28】
【Magic Power: 36】
Looking at the surge in his attributes, Zikomo even had the urge to take a lava bath at Mount Gemir and max out his fire resistance first.
