When Zhao Xu went online the next day, the people in the Watcher Union looked at him differently.
Some players who were busy and did not go to the forum last night also understood such a major event that happened yesterday through the whispers of union members.
They were less than a hundred meters away from the center of the whirlpool.
Several curious players looked at the "soul prisoner demon" next to Zhao Xu who had annihilated the player's soul.
It's just that the soul-capturing demon is huge and its power is still there, so not many bold people dare to approach it.
The undead creatures themselves are of the evil camp. If one is accidentally attacked by the "imprisonment body", there is really no room for reasoning.
That "Starry Sky Reflection" appeared in the Northern Alliance area, so among the top ten players in the forum, most of the players in that area placed their bets on "Starry Sky Reflection".
On Mystra's side, they basically support "Dongcheng Aya". After the other party's vote count last night, it also made the players who spent a lot of money to code her smile. For a while, the number of people queuing up on the rooftop of Mystra was reduced. few.
And Zhao Xu, who only posted on Dongcheng Ling's account yesterday, naturally knows what everyone is looking at. Fortunately, he also explained it in his post so that players could understand the ins and outs. Otherwise, the way everyone looks at him now would not be looking at a strong man, but rather with awe and avoidance.
After two months of playing the game, players have begun to understand the value of attributes.
I also know how precious it is to start with 28 talent points, and those accounts that can register and log in to the Creation Temple at the beginning and start with 32 talent points are even more precious.
Therefore, any player who wants to play this game well is basically advised to start with at least 28 talent points. As for the two opportunities to start with 22 talent points, players who are not in a stressful life will choose to give up.
Zhao Xu invisibly disabled the accounts of the four players yesterday. At the same time, all the equipment on the players' bodies disappeared. Two months of hard work were in vain.
After everyone gathered, the Watcher Guild team set off again, heading towards the "Jingyue Lake" at the foot of Xifeng Valley.
Today, he needed to go to the bottom of the lake to search for the mage tower. Zhao Xu was cautious and only used the first-level "summoning mount" spell. Suddenly, he was riding only the summoned pony and felt that even his field of vision was much smaller.
"Mr. Guangfeng, your 'soul prisoner demon' is so powerful that it can actually eliminate souls." The chief rogue in the union, Dian Zhi, approached Zhao Xu and flattered him.
Yesterday, Dongcheng Aya's post only mentioned that the eight-ring spell "Advanced Evocation of the Undead" can create a "Soul Prisoner Demon" with a challenge level of 11. At the end of the post, the details of the Soul Capture Demon are introduced, but the spell is not described in detail.
With the short message, everyone's eyes stayed on Zhao Xu's "Legendary Undead Scepter" made of finger bones for no less than five seconds throughout the morning.
Everyone has understood that the "dazzling" spiritual light detected by the mage Chen Nuo using "detection magic" that day, that item representing a legend or even an artifact, probably refers to this staff.
"By the way, Mage Guangfeng, is this undead creature following you forever?" The poet Ke Lu looked at the soul-capturing demonic path, his eyes showing longing.
"Each spellcaster can control undead creatures that are four times the Hit Dice of the spellcasting level." Zhao Xu briefly explained this rule.
The poet immediately realized that the Storm Mage was at level 5, so he could control undead creatures with 20 HD. In other words, the 12 HD soul prisoner demon that controlled the 12 HD had already taken up most of the quota.
For a time, everyone's sense of awe calmed down a lot. As expected, the more powerful the undead creatures are controlled, the higher the cost.
But everyone was still thinking differently. The caster level of the Necromancer Staff in Zhao Xu's hand was level 27, so it could correspond to a life die of 108 HD, which meant that he could actually control a total of 9 Soul Prisoners.
Now Zhao Xu was so ruthless that he could massacre villages and annihilate clans with the help of these nine permanently controlled soul-capturing demons.
Next, everyone wanted to ask more questions, but was stopped by Frost Sword.
Then everyone accelerated their pace, and finally spent most of the day climbing over a hill.
Suddenly everyone's eyes lit up.
The entire Xifeng Valley occupies a very large area and stretches out in front, forming a timeless landscape oil painting. There are lush and towering trees in the valley, as well as foggy gray jagged rocks, all of which are dyed with a light halo under the sunlight.
What is even more attractive is the Mirror Moon Lake, which is still sparkling in winter. Under the blue sky and the comfortable and quiet atmosphere of the countryside, everyone's original thoughts of adventure have been eliminated, and everyone is immersed in it for a while. In this landscape scenery.
"This scene is quite beautiful." Jiuxue praised, "If there weren't these missions and fighting and killing, Arthur would be a VR tourist attraction."
"It's a pity that if you don't level up, you won't even be qualified to get here." Shuang Jian also sighed at this time.
When they first left the city, they could barely see many Mystra villagers, and they were even able to pass through some villages to get supplies.
It's just that the direction Zhao Xu and the others are heading is not to other towns, so the number of people is becoming increasingly rare. Since yesterday, I haven't seen many players. Once you get away from the densely populated big cities, it means entering the paradise of monsters.
At this time, everyone speeded up and left the hills, heading towards Jingyue Lake not far away.
President Shuang Jian did not relax his vigilance, and still reminded: "I noticed that the wormwood here is relatively high, there is a lot of hidden sight, and there are many boulders. Please pay more attention."
Zhao Xu also drove the pony summoned from under him to avoid the surrounding rocks.
Suddenly, a wanderer who was standing at the front and clearing the way exclaimed: "The bear is so big!"
This scream tore through this peaceful moment.
Immediately, countless "匌" and "匌" sounds were heard, and the players in the union pulled out the weapons in their hands, or raised their long bows, and looked in the direction of the scream.
A nearly four-meter-tall brown giant bear stood up. As a large creature, it immediately looked down on the medium-sized players present.
"Dire Bear," shouted one of the union members who was the first to react.
Hearing this, even the careless players became serious. If players do not venture into dungeons or some mysterious places, but only venture around towns, they will most often encounter these ferocious animals.
The fur and meat of these ferocious animals are often broken down and sold by players for money. Zhao Xu once encountered the Dire Rat in that sentry tower.
Dire bears can be said to be one of the best among ferocious animals. With a challenge level of 7, they have a health value of over 100 HP.
The ferocious bear suddenly let out a loud roar when it saw dozens of players.
With its weight of three to four tons, which is comparable to the weight of two cars combined, it is full of energy and extremely fierce.
After just a roar, the ferocious bear turned around, raised his legs, turned around, and ran away towards the lake ahead.
Although the dire bear itself only has 2 points of intelligence, facing dozens of armored adventurers made it feel instinctively dangerous.
"Catch up, play conservatively, and use a net formation." President Shuang Jian shouted at this time.
"Chase, this bear can swim," cried the well-informed poet.
Mirror Moon Lake is just ahead. Letting this ferocious bear escape will only become one of the hidden dangers in the future, especially when the main force of the union will enter the water by then.
Upon hearing Shuangjian's instructions, the warriors all rushed forward at full speed, trying to catch the big bear so that it could no longer run.
However, their size, weight and even their own strength cannot hold back a large ferocious bear with a strength of 31.
For a while, several barbarians were even dragged to the ground.
At this time, Zhao Xu and other mages present hurriedly performed the "Giant Transformation Technique", which instantly changed the size of the barbarian and warrior to the first level, doubled their height, and their weight became eight times the original size. times, and at the same time, the attributes also received a 2-point bonus from body size.
The situation on the hills suddenly reversed. With the joint efforts of seven or eight warriors and barbarians, they finally managed to drag the fleeing ferocious bear.
The wanderers and rangers wandering around took the opportunity to attack in turn, and the ferocious bear immediately began to fight back with its palms.
For a moment, even those in the melee department wearing armor could hear a dull crash, and many who were not blessed with the Giant Transformation Technique were even knocked away on the spot.
In fact, if they were just a group of level 1 novices, then the ferocious bears would have been killed one by one with one palm. However, they were faced with warriors wearing full armor and had sufficient defense, so they could barely resist it.
Zhao Xu saw that everyone was barely controlling the ferocious bear, and he didn't want to spend too much time here, so he directly ordered the "soul prisoner demon" to step forward.
When the ferocious bear saw the soul-capturing demon approaching, it roared again, as if it also felt some kind of crisis.
But the Soul Prisoner Demon, who also had a strength of 28, stepped forward to fight with the ferocious bear.
"My Soul Prisoner Demon needs the soul energy of this ferocious bear." Zhao Xu also said at this time.
The warrior barbarians who were originally fighting all retreated after hearing this. In fact, everyone was in danger just now. Once they were critically attacked by this ferocious bear, the priest might not be able to save him and he would die suddenly.
Zhao Xu directly consumed the soul energy of those four people yesterday, which also resulted in his "Soul Prisoner Demon" having no energy to cast "spell-like" at this time.
However, the soul-capturing demon's magic-like true knowledge was quite important to Zhao Xu, so he directly selected this ferocious bear as the soul-capturing demon's fuel.
It's just that the Dire Bear itself is extremely strong, with a constitution of 19, which makes its toughness as high as 12 levels. With the "Imprisonment Body" ability of Soul Prisoner Demon at level 19 difficulty, it is very difficult for a single blow to be effective.
Unfortunately, most spells that can weaken the opponent's physique require a Fortitude save first, directly forming an endless loop with no solution.
After Zhao Xu thought about it for a while, he gave up his original idea.
If weakening doesn't work, then control it.
As long as the dire bear couldn't move, his soul-prisoner demon could naturally keep trying. The 12th-level Fortitude saving throw had to pass the 19th-level saving throw, and there was still a one-third chance of failure.
Because after Zhao Xu reached the third ring, he mastered an extremely powerful attribute damage spell!
This spell has been sealed and rarely known because of its high damage value.
After thinking about it, Zhao Xu looked at the ferocious bear in front of him, chanted a spell on the spot and cast a second-level necromancy spell—
Ghost hands.
