Upgrading "Warming" and "Papermaking" to Tenth-Tier each consumed a total of 7 skill points.

"My Ninja class has reached the maximum level, and I now have 568 mana points. With the passive skill bonus, Tenth-Tier spell only requires 35 mana points."

A thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind, "With a certain level of magical combat power, I only need to activate ' Tenth-Tier Papermaking' 10 times a day to create a blank Tenth-Tier Magic Scroll."

"Based on the current magic power, if we start making them now, we'll have at least a thousand Tenth-Tier Magic Scroll stored up by the time the Bone Lord descends."

"You can adjust it yourself when you have more magic power later."

Thinking of this, Tang Zheng smiled. Who said there were no resources? Now we have them, don't we?

"Unfortunately, the things created by Shadow Clone cannot be preserved, otherwise there would be even more resources."

Tang Zheng shook his head.

Just like when he summoned Angel using Shadow Clone, the Angel disappeared along with the Shadow Clone.

The items created by the Shadow Clone would disappear along with the Shadow Clone, which extinguished Tang Zheng's idea of using the Shadow Clone as humanoid manufacturing machines to work for him.

"The ' Resurrection of the Dead ' spell also needs upgrading. The Divine System Caster Level back then, but now it can be upgraded again."

After adjusting his magic power, Tang Zheng rearranged the magic ritual and activated it again.

The Seventh-Tier "Resurrection" and the Ninth-Tier "True Resurrection" were obtained one after another. Compared with the lower-tier Resurrection Magic, using "True Resurrection" to resurrect not only only requires dropping two levels, but also does not even require a corpse to be resurrected directly.

This is already considered the highest Advanced Tier of Resurrection Magic.

[Skill Points: 74 → 65]

When Tang Zheng activated "True Resurrection," he did not release it empty-handed, but actually resurrected a person, or more precisely, Demi-Human.

The pure white light slowly dissipated!

She had just been taken out of the Item Box not long ago; her whole body was covered with a layer of fine white scales; her slender figure and her chest began to rise and fall again, regaining its temperature.

"Ah!"

The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, sat up in terror, his round, bright red eyes filled with lingering fear, and his whole body trembled.

"Here it is..."

A mix of emotions, including confusion and bewilderment, began to well up in her mind. The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, remembered that she should have died at the hands of that human.

In the final moments of my memory, all I could see was endless darkness and cold.

It's so hot~

As the Lizardman Crusch Lulu's senses returned, he gradually felt the scorching, terrifying heat and billowing steam around him.

The delicate, smooth white scales on my body quickly dried and cracked, causing a burning pain that surged through my entire body, like countless ants biting me.

For Lizardman who live in wetlands and near lakes and streams, a damp environment is the only suitable place to live and survive.

"It's so hot, it hurts so much..."

The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, groaned in pain, her weak arms bracing against the ground as she tried to get up, even though she still didn't know what had happened.

Why did it come back to life? And where is this place?

But the burning sensation and pain throughout her body, along with her biological instincts, told her that she had to leave this place quickly, or she would "die"!

Lizardman Crusch Lulu, braced himself on the ground with both hands. The weakness and powerlessness from his recent resurrection caused him to sway slightly. His vision was blurred as he looked ahead, where a figure stood.

My gaze shifted upwards.

Familiar faces came into view.

"People..."

Lizardman Crusch Lulu, narrowed his red pupils. All his confusion, doubt, and bewilderment transformed into a deep-seated fear.

Welcome back.

A gentle voice came softly.

The words, falling into the ears of the Lizardman Crusch Lulu, were more effective than any invigorating drug or magic. The fear and coldness emanating from his heart, and even the burning and stinging sensations surging throughout his body, seemed to weaken considerably.

"This doesn't seem like a good place to talk, let's find somewhere else."

This was the last thing the Lizardman Crusch Lulu heard before he lost consciousness again.

The Great Wetlands north of the Great Forest of Tob.

Around a medium-sized lake, many wooden houses have been built, and many Lizardman are working there.

On the shore of the lake, various active aquatic creatures such as fish, shrimp, and crabs were scooped up by two strong Lizardman and easily filled two large wooden buckets.

The plump, fresh fish kept jumping around in the wooden bucket, making a "plop plop" sound.

One of the Lizardman placed wooden lids over the barrels to prevent the fish and shrimp inside from escaping.

This is clearly a bumper harvest.

The two Lizardman silently shouldered their large wooden barrels and returned to their settlement.

Such a harvest was extremely rare in the past; even the Elder of the community had to worry about food.

But now, with only a few hundred people left in the entire Lizardman Clan, the problem of food is no longer an issue.

Should we thank the human who slaughtered them?

The two Lizardman exchanged a glance, both able to see the bitter smile and helplessness in each other's eyes.

"What's that?" Suddenly, a Lizardman raised its head and looked warily at the figure standing on the edge of the distant lake, completely wrapped in straw.

"Hurry back and report to the clan chief!"

The other Lizardman immediately abandoned the so-called precious food and turned to run towards the tribe, leaving the other Lizardman on guard.

The tribe can no longer afford any more losses.

The two Lizardman's panicked behavior.

Seemingly having been observed by the figure completely wrapped in straw, it stood quietly for a moment before turning and walking away into the distance.

Not long after.

Dozens of Lizardman Warrior rushed out of the tribe and learned the whole story from the wary Lizardman.

They rushed towards the location of the mysterious figure, but after searching for a while, they found nothing and had to give up.

Looking at the Lizardman Crusch Lulu, who was wrapped in straw, Tang Zheng smiled gently, "Finished watching?"

"Yes."

The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, bowed his head. "Thank you, sir, for allowing the Lizardman Clan to survive."

She knew very well that, given the circumstances, if the human in front of her had been willing, her Lizardman Clan would probably have been completely wiped out of the Great Wetlands.

"The one currently leading the Lizardman Tribe is probably the traveler who used to be from the Dragon Fang Tribe. With his strength, he's more than capable of ensuring your Lizardman survival in this wetland."

Tang Zheng thought for a moment and then casually spoke.

"I will serve you wholeheartedly, my lord." The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, lay prostrate on the ground with his legs bent, his long tail swaying slightly.

"If you require it, I will offer my body without reservation."

Tang Zheng tilted his head back and raised an eyebrow. He wasn't sure if he had misunderstood, or if there was some hidden meaning in what the other person said.

"I don't have a fetish for other races."

"Yes." The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, spoke immediately, her eyes red with confusion.

"How much strength do you have left?" Tang Zheng tapped his temple with one finger, asking with a hint of helplessness.

"My body is still a little weak, but my strength shouldn't be affected much," the Lizardman Crusch Lulu quickly said after sensing his own magic power and the power he controlled.

Resurrection Magic!

The humans before me have indeed mastered the legendary abilities, breaking through the illusion of death and pulling those trapped in the world of death back into the real world.

Such power...

The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, lay prostrate on the ground, his heart pounding, his head bowed even lower.

In the legends of the Lizardman Clan, there once was a Lizardman with "dragon" blood who could use the fifth-rank Resurrection Magic and has always been regarded as a mythical figure among the Lizardman.

Many Lizardman didn't believe it, and even the Lizardman Crusch Lulu didn't think such power existed. After all, even the magic of the fourth realm was already indescribably powerful.

Not to mention Fifth-Tier Magic!

"Ninjutsu: Detection."

Tang Zheng's eyes gleamed with magical light as he looked at the Lizardman Crusch Lulu lying on the ground.

"Judging from the intensity of this aura, it's at level 15. The opponent was originally level 17, but dropped two levels using Ninth-Tier Resurrection Magic. The information we obtained is fairly accurate."

"I just don't know which class's level will drop first when a person from New World loses a level?"

Slightly curious.

The other party themselves probably couldn't make an accurate judgment either.

According to the descriptions of resurrected humans in New World, the resurrected person will lose a lot of life energy and be weak for a period of time, but their skills and techniques should not disappear.

Tang Zheng: "All the records of your Lizardman Clan are now in my possession. I have reviewed some of the records regarding your race's magical learning techniques and content."

"One of the spells is called ' Cloud Operation,' Fourth-Tier spell, but your Lizardman script is too messy, with too many repetitive words."

"I will give you this information. You need to understand this spell and know how to cast it."

"Ah?"

The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, spoke in a panicked voice. Because her entire body was covered in straw, her facial expression was obscured, but her voice conveyed her confusion and tension.

"I've heard of this magic from the old high Priest, but... but with my abilities, I'm simply incapable of mastering magic of this level."

"It's not for you to control."

"It's to help you understand the principles of this magic and how to activate it," Tang Zheng said calmly.

"Your original Lizardman Priest possessed a special Magic Reinforcement technique known as ' Magic Boost.'"

"I also possess this skill. Through a magical ritual, I need your hands to unleash this magic. Do you understand now?"

I see!

The Lizardman Crusch Lulu, suddenly understood and quickly replied, "I understand now."

"Then let's go. I'll disguise myself under a different identity from now on. I hope your intelligence will allow you to live a little longer."

Tang Zheng walked up to the Lizardman Crusch Lulu, placed one hand on the other's head, and activated Teleportation, disappearing from sight.

The Roble Holy Kingdom has two main characteristics.

One was a land divided into two by the sea, which people called the Northern Holy Kingdom and the Southern Holy Kingdom.

Another feature.

It is a walled fortress Fortress for one hundred kilometers, completely separating the Holy Kingdom from the Abelion Hills, with its territory as the boundary.

The Fortress has three large watchtowers, which are used to protect the massive city wall that stretches for over 100 kilometers. They are also the only three city gates and garrison facilities.

In the event of an invasion by the Demi-Human on the border, these three walled forts could serve as strongholds for gathering large armies to launch a pincer attack.

At this moment, at the central outpost,

Several soldiers holding Lancer stood ramrod straight, but their slouching shoulders and the sound of them yawning made it hard to believe.

All of this demonstrates the relaxed state of mind of these soldiers at this moment.

Standing for long periods is tiring, especially in such a dull and monotonous environment, where all you can see in the distance is the deep Abelion Hills to the east.

Moreover, it doesn't matter if the captain relaxes even a little now, since there are always Demi-Human to kill.

Within a month, there will be several groups of Demi-Human invading, but the overall number will not be too large, and the thick city walls can easily handle them.

"The number of attacks by Demi-Human seems to have decreased this month."

"Really? I feel like there's no difference from usual."

"Perhaps there have been fewer tribal wars in the Abelion Hills, and they are mostly defeated demi -Demi-Human who have fled from the Abelion Hills."

"Hahaha!"

Several soldiers chatted idly, occasionally bursting into laughter.

Suddenly, a sharp-eyed soldier looked toward the edge of the distant Abelion Hills, seemingly having spotted something, and his smiling face turned serious.

Soon!

The other soldiers also noticed, and someone took out a military device called a binocular and looked at the scene in the distance.

"It's Goblin and Troll, five in total: one Troll and four Goblin," the soldier in charge of observation said slowly.

The previously tense atmosphere completely relaxed; the mere Troll and Goblin were no threat at all.

Before long, the Goblin and Troll had completely appeared below the city walls.

The archers, who were prepared, quickly drew their bows and fired a volley of arrows.

The Goblin were shot dead in an instant, only the Troll was still barely holding on. But with the second arrow, the Troll also fell to the ground with a thud.

A brief cheer erupted from the city wall.

These invading Demi-Human were not only enemies to the soldiers present, but also a source of merit, especially the few Demi-Human like the ones in front of them, who were not troublesome at all. To the soldiers, they were simply a free achievement.

The soldiers on the city wall waited for a moment, and seeing that no other Demi-Human appeared in the Abelion Hills, they sent out a small team to deal with the corpses below the city wall.

These dead Demi-Human cannot be left to rot under the city walls indefinitely; they need to be dealt with specially.

What should have been a simple matter turned into a series of exclamations from the descending team, causing the people on the city wall to change their expressions, thinking that something unexpected had happened.

"Gold?"

"It's gold!"

"These Goblin are carrying gold!" A shocked and excited voice came from the squad of soldiers below, causing the people on the city wall to be momentarily stunned before their eyes lit up with excitement.
