Chapter Thirty-Four: Before Slaying the Dragon

  The city of Panisia, located in the northeastern part of the imperial capital of the original Lals Empire. It was once a bustling metropolis, but after the last war, it has been completely reduced to ruins by the flames of war.

  The weather here is overcast with dark clouds all year round, and the sky is always gloomy. The bustling crowds of the past have long since disappeared, replaced by a group of restless spirits and zombies that appear from time to time, making this place even more desolate.

  Today, in this desolate land of death, the arrival of three people broke the dead silence. The zombies that usually hid in the ruins, upon smelling the scent of fresh living flesh, rushed out like madmen and gathered in front of the ruins, welcoming these intruders who dared to enter their territory.

  Mudan Xing and Athena, along with Sharlene, gazed forward at the group of zombies slowly surging towards them, their expressions not tense in the slightest. To them, these monsters had become mere stepping stones to enhance their own psychic powers.

  Since the conversation in Fidac, a trading city three months ago, Muxin Xing and Xia Linxue decided to thoroughly integrate into this game world and start fully improving their strength.

  After Mudanxing's body fully recovered, several people began to practice their abnormal combat skills in various parts of the Farusi continent where monsters frequently appeared. Along the way, Xialin and her companions did not use any weapons at all, relying solely on their own martial arts and abnormal abilities to deal with the swift and fierce opponents they encountered.

  It turns out that after this period of effort, Muxin Xing and Xia Linxiao surprisingly discovered that their own superpowers, whether it was the power or

  Both aspects and control have made significant progress.

  He can easily sense the movements of any living being within a hundred meters around him in terms of spiritual ability, and can directly control the opponent's actions and memories within a range of twenty meters. With this method, he also obtained two spiritual system spells from the mage, the magic "Soul Decline" that puts the opponent in a weakened state, and the magic "Retreat Demon" that removes the enemy's additional attack and defense abilities, although there are fewer spells but it also proves that he can learn spells in the game.

  As for Xia Lin Yue, she can now easily control the weather changes in a part of the area and manipulate a small part of the lightning in the sky to attack her enemies. In addition, after being ambushed by several Winged Warriors by Muxin Xing, she learned the beginner-level wind magic Wind Blade. Her long-range attacks are now almost impossible to defend against.

  Muxin Xing looked at the increasingly approaching large group of zombies, subconsciously furrowing his brow: "So many came out all at once, what a hassle! Who's going to take care of this pile of rotten flesh first?"

  Xia Linxiao felt extremely disgusted by the group of rotting zombies in front of her, emitting waves of foul odor. She waved her hand at them with a look of distaste and said to Muxin Xing: "I don't want to deal with these disgusting things, you can handle it. Athena will watch your skills with me from over here. Hurry up, this smell is making me feel like vomiting."

  Mudan Xing helplessly shrugged her shoulders. Indeed, the zombies in front of her were quite disgusting. Not only did they lack arms and legs, but their intestines were also torn apart, emitting a strong and extremely foul odor. As a girl who was born to love cleanliness, she really couldn't stand these things.

  This group of zombies hadn't even approached yet, but a wave of stench had already assaulted the senses. It almost made Muxin Xing vomit up all the breakfast he had eaten that morning. No wonder Xia Linxiao didn't want to face these ghostly things - they could nauseate you before even attacking!

  Mudustar gazed at the disgusting rotten flesh in front of him, his face twisted in a bitter smile as he said to Xialin and the others: "Give me one minute, I'll take care of these things right away."

  He then looked at the still approaching zombie crowd and quickly launched a psychic attack. A huge shockwave suddenly appeared in front of the constantly approaching zombie army, and the powerful impact force immediately tore these still swaying and approaching disgusting corpses like rags, sending them to the ruins far away, this time they were truly in a state of rest, and there was no chance for them to come out and scare people again.

  This time, the Mind Blast wave emitted by Mudeng Xing not only instantly annihilated the zombies in front of him, but also swept away a large amount of dust and stones on the ground. It seems that his mind force attack has increased its power several times compared to before.

  Just as Mudan Xing smiled and turned around to see the effect of his actions, he found Xia Lin Yue covering her mouth and nose with one hand and pointing forward with the other. He immediately turned back, only to find that another person was walking towards him slowly, unexpectedly catching him off guard here.

  Mudustar immediately used his mental power to control a huge stone on the side, and then flew it onto the zombie's head that had embarrassed him. With a loud crash, the big stone fell heavily to the ground, and the unlucky zombie had already disappeared under the stone, probably turned into mush.

  Just as those disgusting zombies were just eliminated, several evil spirits holding sickles and wearing black cloaks began to appear. These guys are much more troublesome than the previous group of zombies, not only do they have physical attack abilities, but also a few magic spells. Especially that mental system magic spell, for people without defense against mental system attacks, it's really a big trouble.

  Mudustar calmly turned his head to look back, while Xialin Yue just smiled at him and immediately activated her ability to take over the fight against these newly appeared evil spirits.

  As Xialing Yue's ability was activated, a whirlwind suddenly swept around her body, and she quickly rose into the air. At this time, her long hair that had been tied up was unexpectedly blown up by the strong wind, and her black beautiful long hair floated in the air, paired with her white eyes due to the activation of her ability, as well as her posture overlooking from above, her noble sister aura instantly increased greatly.

  At this time, the originally thunderous sky above Nisiya immediately hung up a strong wind. At the same time, the lightning flashed incessantly, and Xialinwei was like the queen of storms and lightning in the air, dominating the world. With her light wave of hand, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the sky and accurately struck an evil spirit.

  A powerful lightning bolt struck the hapless evil spirit, sending its soul flying. The next few evil spirits saw that things were not going well and immediately turned around to prepare to escape into the depths of the ruins to avoid the lightning in the sky. For these evil spirits, the lightning falling from the sky was the most terrifying, and its lethal power was also the strongest.

  Although they wanted to escape, the queen in the sky was not willing to let go of these prey. With Xialing's control, powerful lightning bolts accurately hit all the evil spirits.

  When Xialingyu finished her attack on Anran, the dark clouds in the sky were dispersed by her power, and the long-lost sunlight finally fell from the sky to the already ruined Panixia City, making the atmosphere around it different.

  With the demons' glorious annihilation, the moment for Mu Chen and his group to collect their spoils of war had arrived. Of course, this wasn't about rummaging through the demons or those disgusting zombies; these two types of monsters were obviously penniless at a glance, and you should never expect that naked, rotten flesh and floating monsters would have the habit of carrying things.

  Mudustar and the others mainly collected spoils of war, which were those hidden items in the game. Don't ask why a few items would suddenly appear in a blank space, it was also very strange for Xialing and the others, so they could only attribute it to the characteristics of the game world. During this period, they had already found a large pile of various hidden items all over the place.

  After Athena compared the on-site coordinates with the hidden items in the strategy, the three of them began to separate and search for the hidden items. Soon, Xialing's excited voice came: "Found the crystal sword! It's so beautiful!"

  It seems that women indeed share some common habits with dragons, being fascinated by any glowing gemstones and the like. However, this crystal sword does have a certain charm to it, its entire body made from a single crystal clear as glass, reflecting beautifully in the sunlight shining down from the sky, and its attack power is not bad either.

  Before long, Mutsu also found another hidden item - an amber crystal. Its effect is said to be able to withstand earth-based magic attacks.

  It's unclear what's going on, but for some reason they've been finding mostly accessories and very few weapons lately. So far the only weapon found is a 8-foot snake spear in the outskirts of Saronia, which just so happens to be the same type used by Zhang Fei, a famous general from ancient China. It's strange to see a Chinese weapon appear in a game with a clear Western magical style, it seems like another one of the developers' little jokes.

  Now adding the crystal sword that Xialing just found, so far only two weapons have been found, and their power is still passable. As for finding the mysterious man to buy weapons by chance, although Mocheng Xing has met the mysterious man four times in various taverns over the past few months, he randomly bought a cursed ring, an inverted cross, a magic jade, and a holy demon statue from him each time, none of which were the weapons he was expecting.

  Xia Lin Yue excitedly held the crystal sword with excellent sales and walked over with Athena, smiling and asked: "Have all the items here been collected? Dust star, are we going to rush to the ancient capital of Mahaya Town now to prepare for the single red dragon in the south of Echo Valley's Nibru Falls to obtain the Dragon Tooth Sword, or return to the nearby Xuewei Port for rest?"

  Mudanxing immediately looked at the sky, now set off to hurry to the south of Huiyin Valley, Niebulu Waterfall area, even if taking a jet to get there is almost dark. At night, it's unknown whether that dragon will come out or not, it's very likely to rest in its old nest.

  Since this place is closer to Xuewei Port, it's better for everyone to go there and rest. The dragon hidden near the waterfall won't run away, and Mochen Xing plans to visit the tavern to try his luck and see if he can meet that mysterious man again. He wants to take a chance and see if he can buy some good stuff this time. After all, so far, he hasn't been able to buy any powerful weapons.

  Mudustar took out the jet from his bracelet and said to Athena and Xialing who came to his side, "I think we should go to Xueweis Harbor first! After resting there for a night, tomorrow we will drive the jet directly to the Niburu Waterfall area to carry out our dragon-slaying career!"

  Xia Lin Yue and Athena had no objection, so after boarding the jet, they quickly flew towards the port city of Sevres.
