The exterior of the tower was dark green, and each floor was a hundred meters tall. The eaves protruded like giant umbrellas stacked on top of each other.
Outside the tower, countless Undead were wandering back and forth. They were of different ranks. There were the lowest-ranked Skeleton Soldiers, but there were also very high-ranked Wizard Spirits and even Bone Dragons! This number wasn't any less than the ancient creatures from a few days ago. Moreover, the rotting corpses were enough to make one's scalp go numb!
Zhang Yang entered the Great Evil Pagoda. Thanks to the Friendship Pendant concealing his identity, he was just a small Skeleton Soldier in the eyes of these monsters. Not a single one of them gave him a second glance, allowing him to pass through the layers of obstacles and enter the tower.
Looking back at the dense horde of undead outside the tower, Yang Ling did not know how many monsters he would have to kill if he had to fight his way here! Without the Friendship Pendant, he could only come here after reaching Level 150. Otherwise, with so many monsters at such a high level, he would not be able to do anything even if he transformed into the God of War.
The stairs in the tower were all made of skulls, and the pale white stairway to heaven would be a ghastly sight to a coward!
Zhang Yang was not a bloodthirsty person by nature, and could not help but frown. He braced himself and stepped on the skulls, climbing up the Great Evil Pagoda step by step. As Zhang Yang walked past each floor, it was like hell on earth!
The bottom two floors were "producing" the lowest-level unit of the undead, the Skeleton Soldiers! Countless white skeletons plunged their rotting corpses into the dirty pools, and from time to time, new white skeletons would climb out of the pools, becoming new undead!
Not every corpse could become an undead after death!
They could become undead after death, but they had to be filled with resentment and lingering resentment in order to gather on the corpse and obtain another form of "life". Some undead were "born" with only resentment, without a trace of emotion or reason. These were the lower-level undead.
Ghouls only had the resentment to "eat", and the Skeleton Soldiers only had the obsession to "kill".
However, some undead still retained the intelligence they had when they were alive, and even some or all of their memories when they were alive! These were mid-level and high-level undead, such as Wizard Spirits, Wizard Masters, and the Corpse Wizard King, the highest leader of the undead!
Unlike the cheap Skeleton Soldiers, high-level undead were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns. It was very difficult for them to appear! Therefore, the revenants came up with a way to build the Great Wicked Pagoda, "artificially" creating a place full of resentment!
From the fifth floor onwards, Zhang Yang saw the undead torturing humans, Orcs, and Elves to death with his own eyes! Hatred and anger were the greatest sources of resentment. Before death, they would suffer incomparable torture. After death, the chances of becoming an undead, especially a high-level undead, would greatly increase!
Even with Zhang Yang's mental fortitude, he was still terrified by what he saw along the way. He cursed the game designer who had made such a setting, saying that it was definitely the most hardcore of hardcore games! It was like a nightmare, lingering in front of his eyes.
After walking for about half an hour, Zhang Yang finally arrived at the highest floor of the tower. This place was still filled with the aura of death, but the torture tools and facilities that were used to destroy people could no longer be seen. Instead, it was as elegant as the courtyard of an imperial palace!
To be precise, it was more like a library. There were rows of bookshelves everywhere, filled with all kinds of books. Zhang Yang could even bet that the number of books in the White Jade Nation could not be compared to this place!
Zhang Yang carefully walked forward, taking in the scenery along the way. Although he did not know what the Undying Grimoire looked like, since it was a quest item, there would definitely be a hint!
The Great Wicked Pagoda was indeed huge, with a diameter of at least a kilometer. As the stairs were designed to be in the middle of the tower, Zhang Yang walked half a round and arrived at the other side of the giant tower.
A tall figure sitting on a throne immediately entered Zhang Yang's sight. This person had a solemn expression and was filled with a majestic aura. Even though he was sitting on a chair, one could see that he was much taller than the average person.
He wore a moon-white robe and held a magenta staff in his right hand. There was also a towering white hat on his head. Just by looking at his appearance, he looked more like a highly respected archbishop.
[Necromancer King Madvic, Head of the Seven Wizard Kings] (Celestial Leader, Revenant)
Level:???
Health Points:???
Armor Points:???
Attack Power:???
Skills:???
At this moment, Madovich suddenly glanced in Zhang Yang's direction. Seeing that he was just a small Skeleton Soldier, he didn't take it to heart and quickly retracted his gaze.
Zhang Yang was shocked and subconsciously took a step back. Fortunately, the boss did not see through his disguise.
He looked around again and saw that about thirty to forty meters away from Madovich's left, there was an exquisite desk, and on top of the desk was a thick book. In Zhang Yang's eyes, it was emitting a flickering light.
It must be the goal of this trip – the Undying Grimoire!
Zhang Yang slowly moved to the side of the desk and glanced at the boss. Seeing that it did not react, he quickly reached out to take the book.
However, the Undying Grimoire could not be immediately stored in his backpack. Instead, like opening a treasure chest, a progress bar appeared, and it would take 12 seconds to finish reading!
"Okay!" Madovich once again looked at Zhang Yang, and his eyes flashed with a biting cold light. His killing intent suddenly overflowed as he shouted, "A mere human dares to think of stealing the treasure of my Undead Clan!" He pointed his staff at Zhang Yang, and a ball of black gas immediately flew towards him.
His disguise had been seen through!
-1982375！ A huge damage value floated up from Zhang Yang's head.
"Ding! You have died. The durability of your equipment has been reduced by 10%! "
Damn!
Zhang Yang released his soul and appeared in the graveyard. He began to corpse run.
Sigh, even with the Pendant of Friendship, this quest item was not that easy to obtain! Zhang Yang corpse ran as he thought of a plan.
Obviously, as soon as he activated the Undying Grimoire, he would be attacked by the boss. Although Madvic was a Celestial Tier boss, Zhang Yang did not need to kill the boss. As long as he could survive the 12 seconds of channeling, it would not matter even if he died.
In theory, the Warrior's Medal and the Undead Warrior's Heart could provide 13 seconds of invincibility. However, during the channeling, he could not do anything else. Zhang Yang could only choose to activate the Warrior's Medal, but what should he do with the remaining two seconds?
Should he activate Absolute Defense to block it?
The boss's damage was almost 2 million! Although there was a level suppression effect, the boss also had a level suppression effect on Fei Ling. Even if he only dealt 1% damage, one attack would still deal close to 20,000 damage.
Moreover, this was only the power of a casual attack from the boss. He did not know if the boss had any more powerful skills! If there was some ultimate skill that could kill Fei Ling in a short period of time, then Zhang Yang would not be able to finish the channeling!
Because Absolute Defense had a 12 hour cooldown, Zhang Yang did not want to wait that long if he failed, so he immediately changed his plan.
After corpse running and returning, Zhang Yang did not eat any snacks after reviving. After all, even if he was at full health, he would not be able to block a single attack from the boss.
Activating the Warrior's Medal, Zhang Yang entered 10 seconds of invincibility. He immediately picked up the Undying Grimoire.
"Stubborn human, do you still want to die?" Madovich snorted coldly. He pointed his staff again and shot a black gas at Zhang Yang.
Immunity!
Even a Celestial boss would not be able to deal damage to a player with invincibility activated. Madovich's attack on Zhang Yang was a waste of effort!
"Stubborn resistance!" The boss's eyes were filled with murderous intent. Countless black lights gathered at the top of the staff and a 3 second long cast bar appeared under his portrait. Clearly, the power of this attack was extraordinary!
After 3 seconds, the boss finally released the spell that he had been holding back for a long time. A black light shot out from the top of the staff and turned into hundreds of black light arrows, hitting Zhang Yang's body.
Immunity!
Immunity!
Immunity!
However, the result was still the same. If he could still take damage when he was invincible, then would he still be invincible?
5 seconds, 6 seconds!
The invincibility duration was slowly passing. When there were only two seconds left on the Warrior's Medal, Fei Ling, who was hiding at the side, dashed out. She flew in front of the boss and transformed into her human form. Activating Absolute Defense, she attacked with the Dragon Warrior's Spear!
"Ah —" Madovich took the damage from Fei Ling and immediately turned around. His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he pointed his staff at Fei Ling. A cloud of black fog immediately shot out and wrapped around the little girl.
-10244！
Fortunately, the damage was not too high. Fei Ling had a little more than 180,000 Health Points, and Zhang Yang only needed three more seconds to kill him!
Madovich seemed to be very dissatisfied with his own attack power. A black light gathered at the top of the staff and a 3 second long progress bar appeared under his portrait.
3, 2, 1!
"Ding! You have obtained the item: Undying Grimoire x1! "
Zhang Yang was overjoyed. He quickly tore open the Teleportation Talisman. As long as the Teleportation Circle was completed, he could immediately keep Fei Ling and leave!
At this time, the boss's channeling bar was also completed. A black light shot out from the staff and immediately turned into hundreds of black arrows. The arrows rained down on Fei Ling.
-10334！
-22102！
-11034！
…
Every light arrow that was shot out could deal over 10,000 damage to Fei Ling. Some of them even reached 20,000 damage. Due to the level suppression, the damage was increased by 200%, 300%, 400%, and so on. In the blink of an eye, Fei Ling's 180,000 HP was reduced to almost nothing!
Zhang Yang was shocked. He quickly waved his hand and kept Fei Ling in his Follower's Dimension.
"How dare you, thief! Die!" After the boss lost Fei Ling, he turned around and shot a cloud of black fog at Zhang Yang.
After the Teleportation Talisman was torn open, it needed 10 seconds to complete the Teleportation Circle. At this time, there were still more than 9 seconds to complete the Teleportation Circle. There was no way Zhang Yang could leave!
-1023873！
A damage value of over a million jumped up. Zhang Yang was killed again and had to report to the Graveyard.
"Hehe!" Zhang Yang looked at the Undying Grimoire in his backpack and smiled. He only had to pay a 20% loss in equipment durability to obtain the quest item. This was too good!
He directly revived in the Graveyard and tore open the Teleportation Talisman. After 10 seconds, he returned to Morning Town and used the Teleportation Circle in the territory to go to Baiyu City. After summoning the Thunder Eagle, Zhang Yang flew toward the Wizard Tower and found the Great Magician Anthony Faylen, who was studying magic at the top of the tower.
"Hmm, you found these three items?" Faylen seemed very shocked. "With your current strength, it is quite rare for you to be able to do this!"
"Ding! You have completed the quest: Materials for making magic tools. Obtained 10,000,000 Experience Points. Quest Evaluation: Perfect! "
Hmm, that's it?
Zhang Yang quickly said, "Lady Faylen, can we proceed to the next step now?"
Faylen nodded and said, "I will make a magic tool that can try to remove the resentment in Corinne's soul! However, I am not sure if it will succeed or not! "
"As long as there is a glimmer of hope, there is a need to work hard!" Zhang Yang said.
Faylen nodded her head in satisfaction. She pressed her hands on the three items, causing countless rays of gentle white light to appear. Very quickly, a milky-white staff was formed out of thin air. That appearance … Zhang Yang could not help but think of a "* * *" evilly.
"Take it —" Faylen's voice sounded a little weak. "Find a way to sneak up to Corinne and use it on her. Try to remove the anger in her heart!"
"Ding! The Great Magician Anthony Faylen has issued a quest to you: Calm Anger. Do you accept? This quest is a part of the main chain. You will be rewarded handsomely by completing the final main quest! "
Zhang Yang took the "Candy Candy" from Faylen's hands and said, "I will do my best! However, Corinne is so powerful. It will be difficult for me to get close to her! "
"I'll teach you a spell. Once you've mastered it, it'll greatly increase your survivability!" Faylen said as she placed her finger on Zhang Yang's forehead, just like Ares.
"Ding! You have learned a new skill: Shadow Clone (Level 1)! "
This should be the real reward from the quest!
Zhang Yang hurriedly opened the skill bar and looked at the description of this new skill.
[Shadow Clone] (Level 1): Summons a shadow clone that is exactly the same as you. The shadow clone will help you attack the enemy and repeat all your actions. It has the same HP as you, but can only deal 10% damage. Moreover, the skill can only deal damage and does not have control ability. Every time the skill level is increased, the number of shadow clones summoned increases by 1. Shadow Clone can exist for 2 minutes. Cooldown time: 2 hours.
This … is amazing!
Especially during PK, once the shadow clone is used, the opponent will be scared to the point of peeing their pants when they see 11 Zhang Yang!
Zhang Yang could not help but laugh. It was a pity that all the skill points he had just obtained were added to Eagle Eye. There were no more skill points to upgrade the shadow clone!
However, it was not a big deal. Getting the first clear of Dragonmaw Stronghold's death mode would give him 1 skill point. Moreover, there were many main quests and hidden quests in the game. Even high level bosses would directly drop skill points. Top players did not have to worry about not having enough skill points. (To be continued.
