Chapter 62: A little bit of everything!

The fact proves that, when there is a big shot up front who can hold the line.

Even a slacker can manage to look the part.

Undead Rift.

Today is already the fifth day.

Normally speaking, on the second day, by the time it reaches the third day, when a certain number of level-20 'Undead System' undead start to roam here.

The many defenders here are about to begin 'shift'.

But this time, however, things are somewhat different.

The reason is that this time's defense has a 'big shot'.

That big shot can not only easily kill those undead system creatures with flight and levitation ability.

And can also dispel the blockade of powerful 'leader-level' creatures.

You should know that, when facing 'leader-level' creatures, peers of the same extraordinary level find it very hard to counter them.

Yesterday.

That is, on the fourth day, there appeared a level-28 bone dragon, a full six or seven meters long, of leader-level.

From the fact that its entire body is made of golden-patterned bone, one can see that this leader-level bone dragon is not ordinarily strong.

But even so.

Yet the bone dragon was still suppressed by that big shot inside the second-floor fortress.

That exquisite magic coordination.

The violent explosion produced by light-system magic, the binding pressure of masses of vines, the scorching of flames, and so on.

It was practically an art exhibition of sorcery.

Finally, with everyone's joint effort.

That bone dragon was killed.

And the extraordinary trait material of that leader-level bone dragon naturally fell into the big shot's hands.

This point, there is no objection.

With the big shot, everyone's thoughts instantly cleared; just follow along and it's done.

Although, that big shot never showed up on the fortress's second floor.

But everyone knows who that big shot is.

Tanilu: Not bad, that's me!

Small Fortress Second Floor.

The cross-legged Taku slowly opened his eyes.

The first thing Taku did was look upward.

Yesterday, after Taku and everyone joined forces to kill that powerful bone dragon leader.

Taku then noticed that the erosion of the Dark Sun on the Lamor Steam High Tower had stopped.

The power of the Steam High Tower and the power of the Dark Sun seemed to have reached a stalemate just like that.

After gazing for a moment, Taku then withdrew his gaze.

"The stalemate situation is still not much different from yesterday."

"The high-ups of the Lamor City-State should have initially brought the situation under control, which is already no easy feat."

"After all... this is the Dark Sun Church's long-planned erosion scheme."

"That is to say, Lord Oberli will also be arriving soon."

"So..."

Taku's eyes narrowed slightly.

"My Steam Sequence should also enter the initial stage."

Gathered his mind.

Taku looked toward his own wizard ecology.

During the few days of seclusion here.

Taku's Dark Sun pollution has been completely dispelled.

Even, in the process of dispelling it, Taku also used 【Precise Correction】 to, to a certain extent, carefully observe and feel that 【Dark Sun】 trait.

【Dark Sun】 can only be said to be quite strange and dangerous.

However, Taku also figured out some of the traits of Dark Sun.

At least, in the next confrontation, Taku has gained more experience.

Secondly, Taku's wizard ecology has completely broken free from the 【Protection】 of the mother ecology of the Lamor Steam High Tower.

However, Taku still retained some of the 【Protection】 context from the Steam High Tower for himself.

Thus, Taku can better sense the situation of the Lamor Steam High Tower.

"Absorb more wizard traits while stabilizing the wizard ecology."

"Then we can welcome the Steam Ascension."

Steam Ascension!

It is the essential metamorphosis of the sequence.

The basic traits of a pure wizard sequence cannot support the 【Steam Wizard】 sequence.

Taku must obtain sufficient wizard traits.

In fact, Taku really does have that many wizard traits in hand.

From Aseson's hands, Taku obtained 16 first-order wizard sequence crystals and 5 second-order wizard sequence crystals.

As for the extraordinary traits of apprentice mages, there are none.

Apprentice mages' extraordinary traits are easy to digest; they should have already been digested by Yasexun.

But these first-rank mage traits are not easy to digest.

Take estimates that Yasexun probably wants to, when the Steam Ascension occurs, use the power of the Steam Sequence to digest these mage traits.

"I could try to digest these first-rank mage trait crystals."

"But... each trait crystal contains a not weak Eclipse Pollution source."

"This is a supplement for Yasexun."

"But for me, that is a genuine poison."

"Actively consuming and digesting it is practically inviting an evil god to possess you."

"Alchemist!"

Take's mind conjured up a solution.

Not completing the processing of these mage traits.

Take it out to sell, but it can't be sold.

Those merchants aren't stupid; they won't accept something that carries pollution.

In his thoughts, Take looked downward.

Only see, at this moment Amanti is fully focused, immersed in the control of the undead.

Even if there is Taniru's mental recovery, energy recovery, and stamina recovery.

Being under prolonged control of the Undead Realm and control of the undead, her soul's potential is being squeezed out bit by bit.

Perhaps these days of battle have been somewhat agonizing for her.

But it will benefit her greatly.

"Taniru!"

Take looked toward Taniru.

"What's the matter?"

Taniru beside him, without even opening his eyes, replied like that.

"Do you know any alchemists?"

When Take asked that, Taniru finally opened his eyes.

"Isn't the one before your eyes exactly that?"

"Are you still an alchemist?" Take raised his eyebrows.

"To be precise, I am an alchemist apprentice, although I do not possess the professional talent of an alchemist."

"But my knowledge reserves and alchemy ability in this area are not weak."

"You should know, many acolytes inside the tower will learn as much as possible; outside, they don't have such an opportunity."

"Once you leave Lamoer, you'll understand how safe the Lamoer High Tower is."

"We Night Priests can't possibly treat patients every day."

"Alchemy can enhance our understanding of the extraordinary traits of various substances."

Taniru's words made Take look at him with new respect.

"Not to say, those who come out of the tower still have a couple of tricks up their sleeves."

"I thought your side job would be a pharmacist." Take said.

"In fact, I know more about potions than alchemy."

"After all, I am a priest, versed in the theory of extraordinary potions, which is basic skill; potions combined with spells can better treat patients."

Having touched upon his specialty, Taniru at this moment appeared especially confident.

"Good partner!" Take laughed.

"You really know a little bit of everything."

"Since that's the case, you'll have something to do next."

"Help you use alchemy to dispel the Eclipse Pollution in the mage traits?"

Taniru is indeed a smart person.

But he answered wrong.

"No..."

Take shook his head.

"It is to teach me basic alchemy techniques."

"I will dispel the Eclipse Pollution in the mage traits myself."

Taniru wanted to refuse, but now he obviously has no qualification to refuse.

At that moment, Take suddenly felt something.

Afterward, Take stood up.

The next moment.

Gah—gah—gah…

Undead Ravens flew from the distant passage, covering the sky.

Immediately, all the undead mages and casters in the passage became solemn.

Master of the Undead High Tower, Ender of the Undead Rift.

Lord Oberi, has descended!
