I have an eye of truth

He had found another good method. It seemed that as long as he hunted them himself, he could absorb the energy when he got close to collect the crystal cores. Moreover, Wang Yang also discovered that many crystal cores did indeed have varying amounts of energy inside due to some special reasons.

It might even be that some mutated beasts released excessive power themselves, causing an impact.

Therefore, even if the energy inside a crystal core was exhausted, no one would find it strange.

The more intense the battle, the more often this situation occurred.

Anyway, even crystal cores without energy could still be used for many other things and were still valuable.

It could even be said that half of the value of a crystal core lay in the core itself, and the other half was the energy. Wang Yang suddenly realized that those blank crystal cores he had thrown away in the past had cost him quite a bit.

Forget it, don't think about the past; think about the future.

When it was time to return to the city, the city lord suddenly gave Wang Yang a surprise. During the harvest statistics, a soldier from the logistics department walked up to him.

"Lord Wang Yang, although you are not a soldier, you have been a great help to our city this time. The city lord has specially promised that you can choose some of the items stored in the city as a reward."

These words were not deliberately lowered but were spoken so that everyone around could hear them.

He Yingxue curled her lips, thinking this tactic was too elementary. Indeed, giving Wang Yang some things would improve the surrounding soldiers' evaluation of the city lord, making them more supportive of him.

Although the cities here were similar to hereditary situations, they still needed the support of the city's civilians. Otherwise, if things weren't done well, it was possible for the city lord to be overthrown.

Giving Wang Yang things would completely separate him from them, making him an outsider.

In the future, if he wanted to interfere in the affairs of Beige City, he would have no justification.

This political maneuvering, City Lord Lari, was indeed very skilled at it.

Wang Yang didn't care about these things. It was like getting a pillow when you were sleepy. "Okay, I want some spells. Just take me to see them."

Hearing Wang Yang's words, the moods of the people around gradually changed, even though they themselves were not clear why.

The logistics department official who delivered the message also breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he accepted the things. They wouldn't be stingy, after all, this was a hero, and they had to put on a good show.

And Wang Yang's choice was spells, which belonged to the knowledge category, meaning that they would not suffer any losses this time. Knowledge was not unique; even if Wang Yang obtained it, they would not lose anything.

Choosing skill knowledge was the most reassuring thing. It was valuable, but they didn't have to pay anything.

When Lari received the news, he immediately agreed. "Let him choose. Up to three elementary spells are allowed. If they are non-entry-level spells, he can choose thirty, according to this standard."

When Wang Yang and his party arrived at the place where the items were stored, they had already received the city lord's reply.

"Three, huh? Let me see." Wang Yang looked at the catalog and introductions.

Wang Yang didn't like any of those non-entry-level spells, not only because of their weak power. If they were only weak, he could use the Eye of Truth to strengthen them.

But the key was that these spells were all very ordinary, without any special effects.

No matter how much these spells without special effects were strengthened, that was all they would be. He didn't know if they had good things they weren't taking out or if this city's level was too low, so they didn't have any real good stuff.

In the end, Wang Yang could only focus on those elementary spells.

The others were not in a hurry and waited quietly beside him. After all, this was a hero, and even they had a peculiar feeling toward Wang Yang.

"First of all, to accumulate energy this time, the most important thing is to kill Armored Wood Beasts. These are the most numerous things in the Armored Wood Beast disaster. So, in terms of spells, it's best to have ones that deal with Armored Wood Beasts the best."

After a long time, Wang Yang figured it out. Among the elementary spells, the best for large-scale killing of Armored Wood Beasts was only fire-based spells. Other spells had limited damage to monsters like Armored Wood Beasts, which had strong defenses and strong vitality.

Having determined the goal, Wang Yang began to look at fire-based spells.

He didn't lack combat power, and his ability to fight alone was okay, and his long-range pinpoint killing ability was not weak.

What Wang Yang really wanted was a large-scale killing type, distance didn't matter. Fortunately, there were quite a few fire spells that specialized in large-scale killing.

"Flame Impact, Fire Rain Technique, and Large-Scale Ignition Technique, those are the three."

Soon, Wang Yang had chosen the spells he needed.

Flame Impact released fire elements in a fan shape in front, forming an impact force. A wave of air would form directly in front, and it could also knock the enemy back a distance, creating more casting space for himself.

Wang Yang chose this spell purely because the affected area was relatively large.

If he was surrounded, he could also use this spell to open a gap so that he could escape smoothly.

As for the other two, they were really for fighting.

Fire Rain Technique was a rain of fire that turned an area in front into a burning area. It could be understood literally.

As for the last one, it was also the literal meaning. This was an advanced version of the non-entry-level spell Ignition Technique. Ignition Technique could only create a small flame, but this spell could create a large-scale fire.

The fire power was not very strong. This was actually used to burn things. This spell had no effect against other enemies, but it was very restraining against wood-type creatures.

If it weren't for this effect, this spell would definitely be placed among the garbage spells and would not be placed within the elementary spells.

When the others saw that Wang Yang had finished choosing, they immediately took Wang Yang to a quiet room next door to wait. Before long, the copied spell skill books were delivered to Wang Yang's hands.

Wang Yang took the things, thanked them, and left.

"What? Got the things?" He Yingxue had been waiting at the door.

"Yes, the things are good."

"I'm relieved to see you so happy. Anyway, we won't stay in Beige City, so let Lari feel at ease." After saying that, He Yingxue turned and left.

Waiting here for such a long time just to say this? Wang Yang was a little confused, not knowing what He Yingxue meant. Forget it, I'd better go back and learn the new spells quickly.

I originally wanted to improve my strength, but now it seems that I have to allocate some energy to the spells.
