Since receiving the protection of the giant forbidden vine totem, Xiang En and the others' life has become much easier. They no longer need to be so nervous about digging traps and setting up roadblocks.
They focused more on improving their own strength, and Xiang En also had enough time to carve totems, increase skill proficiency, and record the passage of time.
He has not forgotten what Ace said when he was in the province of De Er, that the closed city will not be opened within three or four years, and after three or four years, it is uncertain.
But a year has passed since the end of the world. Apart from lamenting that time flies by so fast, Xiang En is only left uneasy about the turmoil caused by the opening of the city.
Another day there was a horde of the same zombies. Those monsters changed so fast that it was beyond the scope of understanding.
In order to survive, they must prioritize improving their own strength.
Spring is spent in construction and cultivation, and when summer comes, spring seems like just yesterday.
Next to the canal is a wooden pavilion. Xiang En, wearing shorts and shorts, is sitting on a stone and is hard at work carving a smaller taboo vine totem.
At his feet, there was a mouse locked in a wooden cage. The mouse's body would flash with cold air from time to time, and its whole body would tremble in the hot weather.
The summer in the De Aire Province is very hot. I don’t know if it is due to the influence of the apocalypse, but the current temperature is at least 40 degrees.
Ordinary people, like Xiang En, may faint from the heat if they don't have cooling measures.
So he exchanged it for a silver intermediate spell, frost spell, which not only causes the target to be eroded by cold air, slowing down its movement speed, but also continuously dissipates the cold air.
Releasing it on Shushu can not only cool it down, but also cool down Xiang En himself, which is really a good skill.
Bang bang bang!
Outside the pavilion, on the grass, there was the sound of fists clashing.
Andrea and Naka were wearing long clothes and long trousers and were competing in actual combat.
The two of them were not as open-minded as Xiang En. Andrea might have been able to, but there were other people around, so she didn't wear cooler clothes.
The two have been sparring for a long time, squeezing out every ounce of strength and magic power in their bodies and hitting each other's vital points with every move.
Because they knew that Xiang En could heal, they never finished their sparring until one of them had no strength to stand up. Every time, their noses were bruised, their faces were swollen, and they even vomited blood.
Xiang En felt very distressed when he saw it, but he also understood that if such a radical method was not used, the speed of improvement would not be able to keep up with the speed of the zombie beast's evolution, and one day even the forbidden vine totem might lose its protective effect.
Although he was distressed, it was understandable. He exchanged an additional healing skill, Rejuvenation, to avoid anything happening.
Different from the recovery spell that can be used at will, rejuvenation is a continuous healing spell that consumes 15% of magic power and causes the target's injuries to recover at a rate of 2% per second for 30 seconds.
The spell has been upgraded to level 2 by Xiang En, and it will be upgraded to level 3 soon. As long as the head is not lost, the rejuvenation technique combined with the recovery technique can basically save it.
With him as his escort, Andrea and Naka fought even more fiercely, just like now...
Bang!
Naka's fist hit Andrea hard in the face, sending her flying into the air, flying four or five meters backwards, and falling heavily to the grass.
"I've made great progress. Your talent is pretty good!"
Although she had the upper hand throughout the battle, Naka couldn't help but praise Andrea's talent.
It only took a month to go from being unable to hold out for three rounds in her hands to being able to fight for a while before being knocked away by the opportunity.
The experience accumulated by Naka in the past ten years of fighting was almost finished in just one month. It was difficult for her to stay calm.
On the other hand, Naka is only 26 years old and she still has a long life.
"Well… "
Hearing Naka's praise, Andrea's body that was about to get up fell down again, like a salted fish, and the scorching sun couldn't make her move.
A gentle magic power surrounded her body, followed by a burst of refreshing cold air.
Rejuvenation and Frost.
Seeing the cold air coming out of Andrea's body, Naka's eyes lit up, and she immediately went over to pull Andrea up from the ground, hugging her and rubbing her body, while letting out a comfortable moan.
"Haha..." Andrea rolled her eyes, pushed Naka away and walked towards the pavilion.
Two months have not allowed Andrea to make much progress. The magic power content in her body has not even reached the Silver Intermediate level, far less than Xiang En.
Relying on the plug-in, Xiang En's steadily increasing magic power content has reached a new peak. With the current magic power growth rate, it is estimated that he will be able to steadily reach the gold level in another year.
Recently, he has been spending more time on meditation, just so that his mental power can keep up with the progress of magic power.
After hiding in the pavilion, Andrea pressed directly against Xiang En's back to keep warm. The frost spell was still in effect, and her whole body seemed ice cold, even a little too cold.
Xiang En enjoyed the coolness of summer, but he did not stop his movements. This was the only thing missing from upgrading the forbidden vine totem to level four. It can be carved today!
Naka also hid in the pavilion, reaching out to hold the cage where Shushu was kept in her arms. She felt a little regretful that she could no longer stick to Andrea.
But life now is really leisurely, so comfortable that it doesn’t feel like it’s the end of the world.
"Boss!" At this time, Ma Ji came back from the front yard carrying a bucket. He was wearing the same shorts and shorts as Xiang En, and a straw hat on his head. Now he was no different from an ordinary farmer.
He walked under the pavilion and felt a little coolness, but the sweat on his body was too strong and he did not dare to get too close. Half of his body was still standing in the sun and said: "The fields have been watered, what else is there?" What to do?”
"No, let's go rest." Xiang En waved his hand, his eyes still staring at the totem in his hand that was about to take shape.
Marky was overjoyed and immediately walked towards another pavilion on the edge of the manor, where there was Duncan and Hogan, a warrior who was already familiar with them.
Hogan is a somewhat thin man. Although he looks malnourished, his strength is almost the same as Markey.
The two people wore cool clothes and sat directly on the outlet of the canal, enjoying the coolness of the water.
…
Near dusk, Xiang En finally completed a forbidden vine totem, reaching a proficiency level of 4 and gaining 2 more skill points.
After finishing work, the fatigue from a busy day was gone, and a reassuring smile appeared on my face.
So far, he has accumulated 32 skill points. As long as the level reaches the standard, he can redeem two gold-level skills.
If you want to redeem silver-level skills, you can redeem four or five at a time.
But these skill points combined can only be exchanged for two gold-level skills, and they are also the lowest-level skills in the gold level.
However, the lowest level skill in the gold level is already equivalent to a regular level 5-6 spell, and the effect of the spell can make other mages call it a miracle!
