Spellcasting is a permanent addition and my skills are all forbidden spells.

Li Yuanqing pondered for a long time, closed his eyes and meditated, and kept organizing sentences in his mind.

In this situation, morale is low, which is a good opportunity to gain prestige.

…

…

The southern edge of the settlement.

Lu Cheng took out the remains of the spiritual platform.

Holding it in your hand, the properties of this treasure fragment are revealed.

【Lingtai Relics】

[Type: Talisman, does not need to occupy the equipment slot. If you hold multiple talismans at the same time, only one will take effect. 】

【quality:? 】

[Special effect 1: Mana pouring (the holder enjoys 10% cooldown reduction, can be stacked with other cooldown reduction equipment)]

[Special Effect 2: Exquisite Seven Orifices (the holder enjoys 10% spell blood-sucking)]

[Special effect 3: Urgent as a law (the holder’s casting speed +20%)]

…

Looking at the properties of the relics of the Lingtai, Lu Cheng smiled.

Now, he finally knows how good the Dharma God was in his previous life.

Others may think these three special effects are average.

But Lu Cheng was a mage in his previous life, and his family was very clear.

Put it in the hands of a mage, and it will be a real artifact!

Only the Archmage can understand the value of these three special effects!

First of all, there is the mana pouring.

Provides 10% cooldown reduction.

Although, after leveling up, there are a lot of equipment that provide cooldown reduction.

However, the attribute of cooldown reduction is very special and cannot be superimposed!

It provides 10% CD of equipment. There is no difference between wearing one piece and wearing five pieces. They both only have 10% CD.

But the CD attributes provided by Lingtai Relics can be superimposed!

This is equivalent to 10% more CDs for no reason.

This is so valuable!

The same goes for the other two, both of which are the most urgently needed attributes for mages.

Spells suck blood, and cast speed!

Take Lu Cheng's current passive level of 1800.

If a fireball hits it, it will suck 180 points of blood.

It doesn't look like much, but his total HP is less than 200 points!

With the special effect of Seven Orifices, as long as you are not killed instantly, one fireball can fill it up!

The same goes for the law of haste in Article 3.

If it were put before, when fighting against the stone beetle cave dweller, this 20% casting speed would allow him to create an extra fireball between dodges.

These are just the attributes of the Linglong Heart fragment before it is unsealed.

After the lockdown is lifted, the effect will at least double or triple!

However, he is not in a hurry to unblock it.

The resources needed to unlock the treasures must be produced in at least a level 30 secret realm.

Moreover, Lu Cheng was very doubtful whether the unblocking resources of the level 30 secret realm could unblock the seal of the Lingtai Relics.

Put away the remains of the spiritual platform.

Lu Cheng nodded with satisfaction, opened the chat box and scrolled through it.

The previous chaos only stopped when Li Yuanqing spoke.

Li Yuanqing spoke for a long time, generally admitting the advance team's disastrous defeat, and then said that the reason why the advance team suffered heavy casualties was that they encountered the level 6 elite rubber monster who led the monster wave, and chose to sacrifice their lives in exchange for information about the monster wave.

Then, he announced the information about the monsters and called on everyone to join Li's technology in resisting the tide of monsters, and not to abandon the settlement until absolutely necessary.

After Li Yuanqing's speech, morale improved significantly, but it was still quite depressed.

At this time when everyone is still at level 1, the oppressive feeling of level 6 elite monsters is too strong!

In comparison, the number of more than two thousand monsters is not that scary.

Those who can make it all the way to the settlement may have avoided hundreds or even thousands of monsters on the way.

Turning off the chat box, Lu Cheng shook his head slightly.

Two thousand is not the limit of the monster wave. The number of monsters in the formed monster wave will not be less than five thousand.

Level 6 elite monsters are not qualified to lead the monster tide.

The real wave of monsters is yet to come!

Now, the wave of monsters that scares more than 7,000 people in the settlement is most likely just a small wave of pioneers.

However, Li Yuanqing's information saved him a lot of trouble.

"The fifth-level monster is the silver-backed poisonous insect, the sixth-level monster is the rubber monster, and there is another one..."

Lu Cheng thought in his mind.

In the past twenty years of Daxia, he has experienced thousands of monster waves, and he is too familiar with the monster waves.

From a large amount of experience, people gradually summarized the rules.

Beast Tide Law 1: The first wave of monsters caused by the unlocking of the settlement can have up to three types of monsters.

The three types of monsters represent three elite monsters and three black iron-level bosses in the beast tide.

As for the type of monster, it is related to the type of settlement core.

The bronze tree belongs to the metal life type, and among the monster tide, there will be at least one kind of mechanical monster.

After thinking for a while, Lu Cheng had the answer in his mind and walked out of the settlement.

He did not go out from the north where the monster wave was approaching, but left from the southern border.

Although Lu Cheng was confident of repelling the monster wave.

But it's not directly penetrated from the front.

He is only at level 4 now and has only two skills in total. If he is surrounded by monsters, he will be out of control in less than five seconds.

Naturally, it is a tricky way.

More than an hour later.

Outside an abandoned chemical factory, Lu Cheng stopped.

Inside the factory gate and around the drainage channel, there were large silver-backed and green-backed beetles crawling around. They were no smaller than the previous stone beetles.

There are many crawling tracks on the ground leading to the north.

Lu Cheng slowly approached and observed secretly.

"It is about 20% faster than stone beetles and can be kited."

After looking at it for a while, he made a judgment.

Then he raised his hand and summoned an energy shield.

The energy shield skill is only level 1, and its original CD and duration are the same.

However, with the Lingtai Relic, his CD can be improved 6 seconds in advance, so there will be no gaps.

With the blessing of [Endless Drain], a level 1 energy shield can withstand more than 1,800 points of damage, which is sufficient for the current level.

Standing at the gate of the factory, Lu Cheng chose the right angle and shot out a fireball.

"Bang."

-

1902.

As soon as a fireball fell, the silver-backed poisonous insects roared and charged towards them.

Not only one, but a dozen silver-backed poisonous insects nearby also rushed over.

Lu Cheng didn't panic and ran outside.

He had already observed the surrounding terrain. If he did not attract more than thirty silver-backed poisonous insects at a time, there would be no danger.

5 seconds later, the fireball CD improved, and Lu Cheng turned around and fired another fireball.

"Bang."

-

1911.

The silver-backed poisonous insect's health bar was emptied, and it fell to the ground dead, exploding green liquid all over the ground.

[Ding, you killed the silver-backed poisonous insect (level 5) and gained +102 experience points. 】

Lu Cheng is now at level 4. He can skip level 5 monsters and his experience bar has increased a little.

"Upgrading from level 4 to level 5 requires 22,000 experience points..."

Lu Cheng glanced at the panel.

After confirming that it was a silver-backed poisonous insect, he kept rolling out fireballs one by one with his hands.

Soon, more than a dozen silver-backed poisonous insects fell down.

After resting for a few minutes, Lu Cheng's condition was replenished.

With the double mana recovery from the secret magic ring and Xiao Muxue's blessing, his mana recovery is very fast.

He came to the factory gate again and used the terrain to swipe silver-backed poisonous insects like crazy.

To start, one requires two fireballs.

An hour later, with the stack of [Endless Drain] reaching 2900, he could kill the silver-backed poisonous insect instantly with just one fireball.

It's faster this time.

As each silver-backed poisonous insect fell down.

Another hour later, Lu Cheng reached level five.

At the same level as the Silverback Venomous Insect, it has less experience, only 87 points.

Lu Cheng didn't care about this. Anyway, he didn't farm the silver-backed poisonous insects for experience.

Three hours later, a system voice sounded.

[Ding, you killed a large number of silver-backed poisonous insects, attracting the attention of the elite silver-backed poisonous insects. The elite silverback poisonous insect will appear in 30 minutes, please stay away as soon as possible. Countdown to 30 minutes...]

Hearing this prompt, Lu Cheng nodded.

Silver-backed poisonous insects also have swarming characteristics. If you kill too many mobs, they will attract elites and then alert the BOSS.

However, for monsters like this below level 10, there is only one elite in the community.

The elite monster attracted now is the one in the monster wave.

The 30-minute countdown confirmed this.

Because of the distance, the countdown was three times longer!

After making a fireball and killing the last silver-backed poisonous insect attracted, Lu Cheng smiled.

This is the effect he wants.

For him, he would have more control over the elite monsters here alone than in the monster wave.

Facing the monster wave directly could not save the people of the settlement, so he chose to save the country through a curve!
