Mysterious Scale? Class Advancement: Cursed Knight Lv. 3
Tang Zheng was somewhat surprised to see the range of influence of the Dark Wave, and then grinned.
Tread!
Tang Zheng stepped onto the ground, his body instantly disappearing from the spot, and in the blink of an eye appeared in front of the Petrifying Lizard that was attacking the Flame Archangel.
With a swing of his arm, the blade of the iron sword slashed down at the Petrifying Lizard's neck!
Puff!
Rotten blood gushed out, and the enormous head was severed.
Bang!
The Petrifying Lizard regained its ability to move, but its headless body tilted uncontrollably and crashed heavily to the ground.
Experience gained: 723
[Experience Bar: 10355/10000]
"Are the Petrifying Lizard ' experience points so low? Or is it due to the curse?"
The thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind. He twisted his ankle and charged towards another Petrifying Lizard.
Click!
The iron sword shattered.
Tang Zheng conjured another iron sword in his palm and swung it down.
Experience gained: 539
Whoosh!
Tang Zheng continued to change swords, his figure moving rapidly in the darkness. Each shattering of an iron sword represented the slaying of a Petrifying Lizard.
The Dark Wave ability leaves these monsters with no way to resist, leaving them frozen in place waiting for death. Unless they possess the ability to counteract the abnormal statuses of "Fear" and "Weakness Curse," Dark Wave is an excellent crowd control skill.
While gaining experience.
Tang Zheng also noticed the increase in the Curse Power within his body more clearly.
The Curse Power contained within these Petrifying Lizard was clearly far greater than the Curse Power contained within the monsters they had encountered before.
Tang Zheng simply couldn't figure out what the use of absorbing this Curse Power was; it seemed that the strength of the Curse Power hadn't changed at all.
In a short while.
All of the dozen or so Petrifying Lizard were killed.
Click!
Tang Zheng carelessly tossed the cracked sword hilt to the ground and glanced at the experience points on the panel.
[Experience Bar: 16789/10000]
The sight of more than ten Petrifying Lizard caused his Experience Points to surge, meeting the requirements for leveling up again. "A good haul."
Tang Zheng smiled and walked towards the unconscious Duo Gan. When he saw that half of the other man's skin was already rotting, he frowned.
This situation.
He also had no solution; perhaps only by finding the source could a solution be found.
Tang Zheng reached out and lifted the unconscious Duo Gan, then waved his arm, and two Flame Archangel cleared the way in front of him.
Time passed little by little.
Tang Zheng was attacked by several more rotting monsters, but he easily dealt with them all.
[Experience Bar: 17520/10000]
Unfortunately, these monsters were not very strong in terms of the corrosive power of the Curse Power, but they still gained a lot of energy from the Curse Power.
As they ventured deeper, the rotting monsters gradually disappeared, and the number of skeletons on the ground began to increase.
We walked for about 20 minutes again in the dark valley.
However.
A massive mountain wall blocked their path.
"There's no way out?"
Tang Zheng walked up to the rough mountain wall, raised his hand and knocked hard, producing a dull sound.
It's solid!
Something's not right.
With a thought, Tang Zheng had the Flame Archangel move around the entire Stone Wall, acting as a searchlight.
Although he was wearing a "Night Vision" magic device over his left eye, he still couldn't see some details as clearly as he could during the day.
After a careful inspection, confirming that there were indeed no gaps in the Stone Wall in front of him, Tang Zheng then directed the two Flame Archangel to continue probing the Stone Wall above.
Only after the two Flame Archangel rose to about ten meters did they reach the point where the Stone Wall met the left rock wall.
A hidden gap has been discovered.
Tang Zheng had a Flame Archangel carry him up, and sure enough, he saw a broken opening.
Observe the size of the opening.
It was probably dug open by a monster like Petrifying Lizard.
"The Curse Power is becoming more and more active; so it really is here."
Tang Zheng, expressionless, directed another Flame Archangel to enter the cave entrance. After waiting a moment and seeing nothing happen, he then entered the cave.
The walls inside the cave were covered with fine scratches and dust, indicating that they had been there for quite some time.
A moment later.
The Jet Black cave exit was already in sight, and the light emanating from the Flame Archangel was already visible.
Illuminate the entrance to the cave.
Tang Zheng stood at the cave entrance, looking down.
This is a space similar to a crevice between mountain walls. It's not very large, but the light emanating from the two Flame Archangel is enough to illuminate the entire space.
"That is—" Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes, noticing something.
Thump!
Falling from a height of about ten meters, Tang Zheng's figure landed heavily on the ground, causing a resounding vibration to echo throughout the narrow space.
An invisible, dense Curse Power surged within this narrow space.
Tang Zheng was the first to look ahead.
It was a human skeleton, lying sprawled against the rock wall. The surface of the bones was grayish-white, and the joints connecting the limbs had long since decayed.
There wasn't even a smell of decay in the air; it was clear the person had been dead for a long time.
The most eye-catching!
In front of this human skeleton was a huge scale, about the height of a person, and jet Jet Black!
Visible black curse energy was slowly emanating from the scale and dissipating into the air.
"What is this?" Tang Zheng couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at the enormous scale.
He had considered various possibilities, but he never imagined that the source of the Curse Power would be a single scale.
And whose human remains are these?
Based on the timeline, it's impossible for an ordinary person's bones to have existed for so long, especially in a space filled with Curse Power.
Tang Zheng strode forward, a flash of magic emanating from him. "Item Appraisal!"
Item: Mysterious Scale Level:?
introduce:?
Tang Zheng was slightly taken aback; this was the first time he had encountered a situation where the data could not be identified at all.
Judging from the size of this scale, it should be a scale from a giant creature.
The Curse Power within him became extremely agitated.
Subconsciously.
Tang Zheng raised a finger and gently touched the black scale with his fingertip.
Boom 1:
In an instant, the black curse energy that had been slowly dissipating from the scales seemed to have found an outlet, surging into Tang Zheng's body.
The Curse Power that had already accumulated was now at a certain bottleneck in a short period of time!
[Cursed Knight: Level 1 → Level 2]
The information about his class advancement appeared on the Attribute Panel, causing Tang Zheng to show a look of surprise.
But this process is not over yet!
The Curse Power within the Mysterious Scale continued to pour in, and the gradually dissipating Curse Power in the air also converged along with the energy within the Mysterious Scale.
This process takes longer.
Therefore, Tang Zheng was able to more clearly sense the changes in the Curse Power within his body.
The job information in the Attribute Panel has been refreshed again.
[Cursed Knight: Level 2 → Level 3]!
At this point, the Curse Power contained within the Mysterious Scale was completely exhausted, and grayish-white patterns began to appear on the originally Jet Black surface of the scales.
"Have you been promoted?"
Tang Zheng glanced at the experience bar, then at the [Cursed Knight] who had already reached level three, his expression a mixture of stunned disbelief and astonishment.
It was like discovering a new continent.
All along.
Regarding the advancement of Class Level, Tang Zheng believed there were only two ways: either one could do what the people in the New World did and specialize in cultivating that profession, but that would obviously be too time-consuming.
Another way is to upgrade your profession by consuming Experience Points. But now a third way to upgrade your Class Level has appeared!
"Absorbing profession-related energy can actually increase your Class Level?"
Tang Zheng muttered to himself in surprise, then shook his head as if he had thought of something.
This approach does not appear to be universally applicable.
For example, the "Sword Saint" class cannot be improved in this way; it can only be improved through training.
"What an amazing discovery!" Tang Zheng's eyes gleamed with an unusual light.
