Chapter 312

chapter 268 part 2

The presence of the three Higher Tier Species made the 100-plus ordinary ogres dare not make a single move, standing obediently in place awaiting orders.

"Can't you guys take a bath? You stink to high heaven."

The White Mist Witch sat on a large tree nearby, her bright yellow pupils looking down at the group of stinking, boorish fellows below as she pinched her nose.

After Tang Zheng had subjugated Gagaran and the Water Elemental Ogre, he had sent them out to defeat the equally famous Earth Elemental Ogre and bring it here.

This was why the Earth Elemental Ogre was here.

"What does that man want?" Gagaran's face was expressionless as he heard the White Mist Witch's words, his voice cold.

"You should address him as Lord!" the White Mist Witch leaned forward, correcting him.

"Hmph." Gagaran snorted coldly, his gaze filled with disdain and contempt for this strange demi-human who was monitoring them.

Hummm—

The air vibrated.

A mysterious figure in red appeared out of thin air before everyone.

"So few ogres?" Tang Zheng's raspy voice was filled with surprise.

In the hills, the number of ogres and goblins was not inferior to that of some of the top tribes, but their low wisdom prevented them from forming integrated tribes.

In the eyes of some other demi-human species, ogres and goblins were treated as nothing more than common monsters.

"These two are loners. It's already impressive that they could gather a group of ogres around them," Gagaran said flatly, though his pupils contracted slightly.

Although the Water Elemental Ogre and the Earth Elemental Ogre possessed a certain degree of wisdom, they had no intention of subjugating ordinary ogres.

As Higher Tier Species, in their eyes, they did not even belong to the same race as ogres.

"Idiots."

Tang Zheng let out a cold laugh.

Given the nature of ogres and goblins, if these two Higher Tier Species elemental ogres were willing, they could easily subjugate all the ogre and goblin races in the entire hills.

With such a massive group of tribesmen, plus their own strength, they would have had the power to contend with the 12 major races.

With a thought, Tang Zheng's stat panel appeared.

[Experience Slot: 1/460000]
[Comprehensive Level: 48 → 47 Lv]
[Ninja: 2 Lv → 1 Lv]

A short while ago, he had used XP Casting again, causing his level to drop by one once more.

"Human!"

"It's a human! You two actually submitted to a two-legged crawler! Roar!"

The Earth Elemental Ogre roared furiously upon seeing Tang Zheng appear.

He had assumed that the one who could make strong ones like Gagaran and the Water Elemental Ogre submit would be another powerful demi-human, but he never expected it to be a weak human.

"Oh, I really did overestimate your wisdom. Even as a Higher Tier Species, you're still brainless."

Tang Zheng looked at the Earth Elemental Ogre, which looked similar to the Water Elemental Ogre. "Since you're so noisy, you can stop talking from now on."

"Charm Species!"

An invisible wave of magic power surged forward.

The Earth Elemental Ogre's roar cut off abruptly. Unable to even struggle, its gaze instantly became vacant.

Tang Zheng's current spellcasting level had reached the standard of the Tenth Tier. Although it was a false spellcasting level with no bonuses, against a low-level opponent, there was no way for them to resist.

"Cut out your own tongue," Tang Zheng said indifferently.

Without hesitation, the Earth Elemental Ogre grabbed its own tongue and sliced it off. A large amount of blood gushed from its mouth.

The intense pain twisted the Earth Elemental Ogre's face. Its body began to tremble, and the agony jolted it awake from the charmed state, letting out a wail as it lay on the ground.

Seeing this, the expressions of Gagaran and the Water Elemental Ogre changed. Then, their gazes contracted sharply.

They simultaneously felt a terrifying aura emanating from Tang Zheng's body. The air seemed to become heavy and viscous.

The Water Elemental Ogre was terrified.

Gagaran subconsciously took a step back, his hands tightly gripping the spiked club beside him. He stared at Tang Zheng in disbelief, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

"This aura... How..."

Gagaran's breathing became ragged. In that moment, he was overcome by a sense of powerlessness, feeling as if he could be killed at any moment without any way to resist.

[Experience Slot: 1/410000]
[Comprehensive Level: 47 → 46 Lv]
[Ninja: 1 Lv → ...]

As he used the "Transcendental Technique" ability, his level instantly dropped again, and with it, the [Ninja] job vanished from his stat panel.

Tang Zheng had always been using the "Concealed Aura" passive ability. It was lost along with the [Ninja] job.

This caused his own aura to be exposed for the first time, creating a terrifying pressure!

"Fourth Tier Magic requires a cost of 200,000 experience. The experience slot is still at one point after the level drop."

"It seems that as long as the experience consumed by XP Casting doesn't exceed the experience slot's upper limit, it won't cause a drop of two levels at once."

"The job is gone, so the passive disappeared with it."

Tang Zheng had been closely watching the changes to the stats on his panel, and he finally had a deeper understanding of the "Experience Conversion Technique" skill.

"You, lead them."

Tang Zheng said to the White Mist Witch. The moment his voice fell, his figure had already vanished.

"Yes, Master," the White Mist Witch replied respectfully at once, then looked at the tense Gagaran below with a giggle.

"Hee hee, have you only just now realized the difference in strength between you and our Master? Big guy, take those stinky fellows behind you and follow me."

Meanwhile.

Tang Zheng had already arrived at the quiet location of the lava zone.

He once again confirmed the information on his stat panel.

"The job and the passive have indeed both disappeared." Tang Zheng's eyes were serious as he carefully observed and confirmed it once more.

This result wasn't disappointing; it was a scenario he had anticipated.

"Wait, the skills didn't disappear?"

Tang Zheng's gaze shifted downwards, and he suddenly discovered that the entire series of skills from the [Ninja] job was still there.

*Skill "Ninjutsu: Hidden Shadow" discovered. Requires High-Tier Job [Ninja]. Current conditions not met. Requires 3 skill points.*
*No prerequisite Mid-Tier Job, conditions not met, requires 6 skill points. No Basic Job, conditions not met...*
*"Genius" job activated. You possess the Basic Job "Rogue." Learning conditions met. Acquire job?*
*Skill "Ninjutsu: Detect" discovered. Requires High-Tier Job [Ninja]. Current conditions not met. Requires 3 skill points.*
*No prerequisite Mid-Tier Job, conditions not met, requires 6 skill points. No Basic Job, conditions not met...*
*...*

Tang Zheng stared at the job information that subsequently refreshed on his stat panel and fell silent.
