After upgrading "Heating" and "Papermaking Technique" to Tier 10, a total of 7 skill points were consumed.
"The Ninja class has reached its maximum level. Now, I have 568 points of magic power. With the passive buffs, a Tier 10 magic spell only consumes 35 points."
Minori thought, "To ensure a certain level of magical combat power, I only need to cast 'Tier 10 Papermaking' 10 times a day to create a Tier 10 blank magic scroll."
"Based on the current magic power value, if I start crafting now, I can store at least a thousand Tier 10 magic scrolls by the time the Bone King descends."
"I can always adjust it later if I have more magic power."
Minori smiled at this thought. Who said there were no resources? Now there are.
"It's a pity that the things created by Shadow Clones cannot be preserved; otherwise, there would be even more resources."
Minori shook his head.
Just like when he summoned angels using Shadow Clones before, the angels disappeared along with the Shadow Clones.
The items created by Shadow Clones disappear along with the Shadow Clones, extinguishing Minori's idea of using Shadow Clones as humanoid manufacturing machines to work for himself.
"'Revive Undead' also needs to be upgraded. The Faith-based caster level was not high enough before, but now it can be upgraded again."
Minori adjusted his magic power and rearranged the magic ritual before casting it again.
The seventh-tier "Rebirth" and the ninth-tier "True Rebirth" were successively obtained. Compared to lower-level resurrection magic, using "True Rebirth" not only requires dropping only two levels but also doesn't even require a corpse to revive directly.
It is already the highest level of resurrection magic.
[Skill Points: 74 → 65]
When casting "True Rebirth," Minori didn't just release it into the air but actually revived someone, or rather, a demi-human.
The white, holy light slowly dissipated!
The slender figure, covered in a layer of fine white scales, which had just been taken out of the item box, began to rise and fall again, restoring warmth to its chest.
"Ah!"
The Lizardman Crusch Lulu sat up in terror, her round, bright red eyes filled with lingering fear, trembling all over.
"Where is this...?"
Confused, doubtful, and other emotions surged from her mind. Lizardman Crusch Lulu remembered that she should have died at the hands of that human.
The last moment of her memory was just endless darkness and coldness.
So hot~
As Lizardman Crusch Lulu's senses returned, she gradually felt the scorching heat around her. The terrifying high temperature made her delicate, moist white scales quickly dry, crack, and a burning pain surged from all over her body, like countless ants biting her.
As a lizardman who lives in wetlands and near lakes, a humid environment is suitable for living and survival.
"It's so hot, so painful..."
Lizardman Crusch Lulu groaned in pain, her weak arms propping herself up on the ground, trying to get up. Even now, she didn't know what had happened.
Why was she revived? Where was she?
But the burning sensation and pain from her body, as well as her biological instincts, told her that she had to leave this place quickly, or she would "die"!
Lizardman Crusch Lulu supported herself with her hands, the weakness and powerlessness of just being revived made her body sway slightly, and her blurred vision looked forward, where a figure was standing.
Her eyes moved up.
A familiar face came into view.
"Hu...man..."
Lizardman Crusch Lulu's red pupils shrank, and all the confusion, doubt, and incomprehension turned into fear from the depths of her heart at this moment.
"Welcome back."
The gentle voice came softly.
Falling into Lizardman Crusch Lulu's ears, it was more effective than any spirit-boosting drug or magic. The fear and coldness from her heart even seemed to weaken the burning and stinging sensations that surged throughout her body.
"This place doesn't seem suitable for talking. Let's go somewhere else."
These were the last words Lizardman Crusch Lulu heard before losing consciousness again.
The great swamp north of the Tob Great Forest.
Many wooden houses have been built around a medium-sized lake, and many lizardmen are working.
On the shore of the lake, various active aquatic creatures such as fish, shrimp, and crabs were caught by two strong lizardmen, easily filling two large wooden barrels.
The plump, fresh fish kept jumping in the wooden barrel, making a "pa da pa da" sound.
One of the lizardmen put the wooden lids on the wooden barrels respectively to prevent the fish and shrimp inside from escaping from the wooden barrels.
This was obviously a great harvest.
But the two lizardmen just silently carried the large wooden barrels on their backs and returned to the settlement.
Such a harvest was very rare in the past, and even the elders in the settlement had to worry about the food problem.
But now, with only a few hundred people left in the entire lizardman race, the food problem is no longer a problem.
Should they thank the human who slaughtered them?
The two lizardmen looked at each other and could see the wry smiles and helplessness in each other's eyes.
"What is that?" Suddenly, one of the lizardmen raised his head and looked warily at the figure standing on the edge of the lake in the distance, wrapped in straw.
"Go back quickly and report to the patriarch!"
The other lizardman dropped the so-called precious food at the first moment and turned to run towards the tribe, leaving the other lizardman on guard.
The current tribe can no longer withstand any losses.
The two lizardmen's panicked behavior.
Seemed to be seen by the figure wrapped in straw, who stood still for a moment before turning and leaving into the distance.
Not long after.
Dozens of lizardman warriors rushed out of the tribe. After learning about the whole thing from the wary lizardman.
They rushed to the location of the mysterious figure just now, but after searching for a long time, they found nothing and could only give up.
Looking at the Lizardman Crusch Lulu wrapped in straw in front of him, Minori smiled softly: "Have you finished watching?"
"Yes."
Lizardman Crusch Lulu lowered her head: "Thank you, sir, for allowing the lizardman race to survive."
She knew very well that in the situation at the time, if the human in front of her was willing, their lizardman race might have completely disappeared from the Great Swamp.
"The one who is currently commanding the lizardman tribe should be the traveler from the former Dragon Tusk Tribe. With his little strength, it is enough to ensure that your lizardmen can survive safely in this swamp."
Minori thought for a while and said casually.
"I will serve you wholeheartedly, sir." Lizardman Crusch Lulu bent her legs and crawled on the ground, her slender tail swaying slightly:
"If you need it, sir, I will contribute my body without reservation."
Minori tilted his head back and raised his eyebrows. He didn't know if he had understood it wrong or if there was some meaning in what the other party said.
"I don't have a thing for other races."
[TL: No Elf Girls, Succubus, Cow Woman Etc... WHAT]
"Yes." The Lizardman Crusch Lulu's bloodshot eyes were filled with doubt, but he still spoke immediately.
"How much of your strength remains?" Minori tapped his temple with a finger, feeling somewhat helpless.
"My body is still a little weak, but my power should not have been greatly affected." The Lizardman Crusch Lulu quickly responded after sensing his own magic power and the power he possessed.
Resurrection magic!
The human before him had indeed mastered even legendary abilities, breaking the illusion of death and pulling those trapped in the world of death back into the world.
Such power…
The Lizardman Crusch Lulu prostrated on the ground, his heart pounding violently, his head buried even lower.
In the legends of the lizardman race, there was once a lizardman with the bloodline of a "Dragon" who could use the fifth-tier resurrection magic, and was always regarded as a mythical being among the lizardmen.
Many lizardmen did not believe it, and even the Lizardman Crusch Lulu did not think there would be such power, after all, even fourth-tier magic was already unimaginably powerful.
Not to mention fifth-tier magic!
"Ninjutsu · Detection."
Minori's eyes flashed with magical light as he looked at the Lizardman Crusch Lulu lying on the ground.
"According to this aura intensity, it is at level 15. Originally, he should have been level 17. Using ninth-tier resurrection magic dropped him by 2 levels. The information detected is fairly accurate."
"I just don't know which profession's level an otherworlder will lose first after being resurrected?"
Slightly curious.
The person himself probably can't accurately judge either.
According to the descriptions of otherworlders after resurrection, the resurrected person will lose a lot of life energy and be weak for a period of time, but skills and techniques should not disappear.
Minori: "All the recorded information of your lizardman race is now here with me. I have looked at some of the magic learning techniques and content records of your race."
"Among them, there is a magic called the fourth-tier 'Cloud Manipulation', but your lizardmen's writing is too messy, with too many repeated words."
"I will give you this information, you need to understand this magic and understand how to cast it."
"Ah?"
The Lizardman Crusch Lulu made a flustered sound. Because his whole body was covered with straw, his expression could not be seen clearly, but the other party's confusion and nervousness could be felt from the sound:
"I have also heard about this magic from the old priest leader, but… but, with my talent, I simply cannot master this level of magic."
"It's not for you to master."
"It's for you to understand the principle of this magic and know how to activate it," Minori said lightly.
"Among your original lizardman priests, there were special magic enhancement methods known as 'Magic Ascension'."
"I also have such methods. With the help of a magic ritual, I need to release this magic through your hands. Do you understand now?"
So that's how it is!
The Lizardman Crusch Lulu suddenly understood and quickly said, "I understand."
"Then let's go. Next, I will disguise myself as another identity. I hope your wisdom can help you live a little longer."
Minori walked in front of the Lizardman Crusch Lulu, put a hand on the other's head, activated the teleportation, and disappeared.
...
The Holy Kingdom of Roble has two major characteristics.
One is that the sea divides the country into two parts, called the North Holy Kingdom and the South Holy Kingdom by the people.
The other characteristic.
Is the establishment of a hundred-kilometer-long city wall fortress that completely separates the Holy Kingdom from the Abelion Hills, using territory as the border.
The entire fortress has three large blockhouses. The three facilities are used to protect the huge city wall that is more than one hundred kilometers long, and are also the only three city gates and garrison facilities.
In the event of an invasion by demi-humans on the border, these three city wall blockhouses can serve as bases for gathering large troops to attack and defend.
At this moment, at the central blockhouse base,
Several soldiers holding spears, although standing straight, whether it was from their slumped shoulders or the sound of yawning.
All show that these soldiers are currently relaxed.
Standing for a long time is a very tiring thing, especially in such a boring environment, where you can only see the deep Abelion Hills to the east.
What's more, the captain is not here at the moment, so it doesn't matter if you relax a little, after all, the demi-humans can never be driven off for good.
There will always be several waves of demi-human invasions in a month, but the overall number will not be too large, and it can be easily resolved by relying on the thick city walls.
"The number of demi-human attacks this month seems to be less."
"Is that so? I feel like there is no difference from usual."
"Perhaps there are fewer tribal wars in the hills. They are all defeated demi-humans who escaped from the hills."
"Hahaha!"
Several soldiers chatted and laughed from time to time.
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed soldier looked towards the edge of the distant hills and seemed to have discovered something. The smiling face suddenly became serious.
Soon!
The other soldiers also noticed it together. Someone took out military supplies called binoculars and looked at the scene in the distance.
"It's goblins and trolls. The number is five, one troll and four goblins." The soldier in charge of observation slowly spoke.
The originally serious atmosphere was completely relaxed. The mere troll and goblins were not to be feared at all.
Before long, these goblins and trolls had completely appeared below the city wall.
The archer soldiers, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly drew their bows and shot the arrows, firing a volley.
The trolls were shot to death in an instant, and only the troll could barely support itself. However, as the second arrow shot, the troll also completely fell to the ground, making a muffled sound.
There was a brief cheer on the city wall.
These invading demi-humans were not only enemies to the soldiers present, but also a merit, especially demi-humans like the ones in front of them, who were few in number and not troublesome, were merits sent to the soldiers for free.
The soldiers on the city wall waited for a moment, and when they saw that no other demi-humans appeared in the hills, they sent a small team to deal with the corpses under the city wall.
These dead demi-humans cannot be left to rot under the city wall all the time and need to be specially disposed of.
Originally, this was a simple matter, but the team that went down suddenly let out exclamations, causing the faces of the people on the city wall to change, thinking that something unexpected had happened.
"Gold?"
"It's gold!"
"These goblins are actually carrying gold." Shocked and excited voices came from the soldier team below, causing the people on the city wall to be briefly stunned before their eyes lit up.
