"The Black Soul Stone's current growth level is 200 Soul Essence."
"You can upgrade your exclusive equipment, Black Soul Stone, to level 4."
"Do you want to upgrade it?"
Bai Xiaowen chose yes without hesitation. The spirit world's laws sent another message:
"The Black Soul Stone has been successfully upgraded to level 4. Current growth level is 200 Soul Essence."
"The Black Soul Stone's additional skill, Return of the Dead, has added a new special effect: Fixed Point Airdrop."
"The fourth level of the Black Soul Stone's Enhancement Atlas has been unlocked."
Bai Xiaowen first looked at the Fixed Point Airdrop skill.
[Fixed Point Airdrop: When using the Return of the Dead skill, you don't have to summon all the creatures at once. Instead, you can accurately summon one or more of them and arrange where they will appear. Note: The distance between the summoned creatures and you in a straight line must not exceed your mental strength * 10 (meters).]
Bai Xiaowen read the description of the special effect of 'Fixed Point Airdrop' and said with a smile, "So when the Black Soul Stone reaches level 4, it has additional special effects like skill levels and equipment enhancement levels. This Fixed Point Airdrop special effect is very useful. "
"Is it very useful? There's no increase in attributes or numbers. " Li Shuyi was a little puzzled. "At most, it's a little more convenient. When you only need one summoned creature, you don't have to summon all of them at once."
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "The essence of this special effect lies in the word 'fixed point'. My understanding is that I can use summoned creatures to block some critical skills … For example, if I'm suddenly attacked and can't dodge, I can summon a skeleton sword-shielded soldier to block the enemy's attack. It's worth it to use a skeleton sword-shielded soldier to exchange for a critical skill of the enemy. "
Li Shuyi understood and nodded.
Then, Bai Xiaowen opened the fourth level of the Enhancement Atlas and checked the enhancement options.
[Enhancement Option 1: Added a summoned creature of the Corpse Demon race, Stitched Monster. Stitched Monster has an elite template and requires 150 Soul Essence.]
[Enhancement Option 2: Added a summoned creature of the Bone race, Skeleton Warrior. Skeleton Warrior has an elite template and requires 150 Soul Essence.]
[Enhancement Option 3: Added a summoned creature of the Soul race, Evil Ghost. Evil Ghost has an elite template and requires 200 Soul Essence.]
[Upgrade Option 4: All attributes of your Skeleton Mage + 4. Requires 150 Soul Essence.]
[Upgrade Option 5: Increase your zombie's HP by 100 points. Requires 100 Soul Essence.]
There were a total of five options, but the amount of Soul Essence required was not much higher. It was still within Bai Xiaowen's tolerance.
The first three options were to add new creatures, while the last two options were to strengthen existing creatures.
The first option that Bai Xiaowen eliminated was the seemingly cheap option 5 (Zombie Doctor: …). As for option 4, it was a pretty good option. It gave the Skeleton Mage a + 4 to all attributes. With the boost from Bai Xiaowen's Spirit Tutor skills and his innate spiritual power, the effect would be even more outstanding.
Moreover, Bai Xiaowen's black soulstone contained the souls of several Yellow Turban Army lightning warlocks. In addition, the Overlord of the Red Leaf Territory, March, who had just absorbed it, was also a Lightning Mage.
The Skeleton Mages had yet to devour the souls of these powerful Mages, probably because they were too weak. After gaining + 4 to all stats, they would be able to devour the souls of Commander-level powerhouses. At that time, there would be an additional boost. For example, the process of Skeleton Warriors evolving into Skeleton Swordsmen could be used as an example. Bai Xiaowen's super brain was still very good at drawing inferences from one case.
In addition, Bai Xiaowen was also very curious about option 3, the new "Evil Ghost". This option was the most expensive of the five options. It required a total of 200 Soul Essence. In other words, according to the laws of the Spirit Realm, the strength of the Evil Ghost surpassed that of an ordinary Elite.
According to Bai Xiaowen's judgment, there were two possibilities for the Evil Ghost. One was a high Agility Assassin, similar to an Elite Ghost. The other was a high Spirit Ghost Mage, good at mind control spells. Moreover, the latter was more likely. After all, the Agility Assassin already had a Ghost.
The importance of mind control spells was undeniable. In Bai Xiaowen's team, there had never been a Hero-level tank-type profession. However, he was able to kill Bosses repeatedly. The reason was that he had enough mind control spells and had a high priority!
However, this was only Bai Xiaowen's speculation. He was also unsure of the position and type of the "Evil Ghost". Moreover, 200 Soul Essence was indeed expensive. He did not want to take the risk.
In Bai Xiaowen's heart, the newly added "Stitched Monsters" and "Skeleton Warriors" were definitely more important than "Stitched Monsters".
These two were melee types just by looking at their names. The Stitched Monster was probably a Physique type meat shield, while the Skeleton Warrior was probably a Strength type melee damage dealer.
If he chose one of these two creatures, he would have to occupy a melee position. When besieging the Boss, there would be summoned creatures or Li Shuyi watching from the side. He would not be able to squeeze in. Fortunately, Bai Xiaowen's [Return of the Dead] skill had changed. He could keep one or two Skeleton Swordsmen to help himself or his teammates block the enemy's key skills. This would free up a melee position.
The Stitched Monster was a meat shield, which was a bonus. Unfortunately, this kind of slow-moving Elite-level meat shield was not only inferior to a Hero-level tank-type Awakened, but even an Elite-level tank like Han Xu could not compare. However, it was already good that they were useful.
Therefore, in Bai Xiaowen's priorities, he first chose option 1, "Stitched Monster." After he had accumulated more Soul Essence, he would light up option 4, "Skeleton Mage All Attributes + 4." As for the remaining three options, he would choose them based on the situation in the future.
The growth rate required to upgrade the Black Soul Stone from Level 4 to Level 5 was 1,000! If he wanted to kill Middle-level (Level 4 to 6) Bosses to absorb their souls, he would need to kill about 20 of them.
It was not easy to kill 20 Bosses. If it was not a chaotic and violent small plane like the King of Fighters, he could not kill Bosses casually. Even if he had the ability to kill Bosses, it would cause more trouble and be difficult to bear. The most common thing was that when he killed the small ones, the big ones would come out. If a Lord jumped out to protect him and seek revenge, he would probably be expelled from the Spiritual World in advance.
