Chapter 295: Fifth-Tier Clairvoyance, Khajiit's Excitement
"Kill them!"
"Slaughter these bastards!"
"..."
Terrifying Spider Humanoids, their slender bodies covered in short, black-and-orange fur, leaped nimbly through the jungle.
Like a flurry of black shadows, they descended upon the Iron Ratmen and Ogres below, erupting into a chaotic melee in the blink of an eye.
Roars and battle cries echoed through the sky!
The brutal clash of races quickly filled the air with the thick scent of blood.
Behind the Iron Ratmen and Ogres, dozens of Demonkin magic casters provided support and launched magical attacks.
The Spider Humanoids were exceptionally difficult to deal with. Not only were their movements swift, but they were also wrapped in spider silk as hard as steel, which could block the majority of physical damage.
"Magic Arrow: Wind!"
Tang Zheng stood beneath a lush tree trunk, waving his hand and chanting.
Swoosh!
Ten streams of white light instantly condensed and flew into the midst of the Spider Humanoids, accurately piercing their unprotected heads.
[Gained 270 Experience]
[...]
[Gained 369 Experience]
Tang Zheng stood his ground, attacking relentlessly. He released Magic Arrows one after another, dense streams of white light flying out continuously, forcefully crushing a group of Spider Humanoids that were attacking from a distance.
The power of a first-tier spell was indeed not high, but that depended on whose hands it was in. Tang Zheng's magic attack stat was quite high, and these Spider Humanoids possessed no magic resistance-type abilities.
Just looking at the power of the Magic Arrows Tang Zheng released, it was indeed abnormally high. This, of course, was due to the bonuses from his jobs.
The Mad Mage's passive, Elemental Attribute Alteration, granted his magic the power to be enhanced with elemental attributes.
The Super Magic Master passive from Magic Transcender also enhanced the maximum value of variable quantities within his magic.
Then there was Elemental Blessing, which caused him to inflict stronger destruction and effects when using elemental-type magic.
Additionally.
Reduced Magic Consumption allowed Tang Zheng to cast spells of the fourth tier or lower while only consuming a single point of magic power.
This series of passive bonuses resulted in ordinary Magic Arrows in Tang Zheng's hands dealing the highest damage for the lowest cost.
The power of each magic arrow reached that of a second-tier spell.
One magic arrow was basically enough to take out a single Spider Humanoid.
If one couldn't, it was simply a matter of hitting it with another arrow!
"Under the influence of the drought, the situation in the hills has devolved into a crisis of water and food. It's starting to become completely chaotic."
Tang Zheng cast his spells, silently contemplating the relentlessly attacking Spider Humanoids. They were here to seize the water source.
The Demonkin tribe lived near the water source, but this spring had, of course, already been occupied by the demi-human tribes led by Tang Zheng.
Actually.
Even without occupying the water source, the demi-human tribes under Tang Zheng's control still wouldn't lack for water in the current dry, hot climate.
With the lizardman Crusch Lulu's ability, she herself could cast the fourth-tier Cloud Manipulation to create a small patch of dark clouds. Making it rain was no problem at all.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Hmm?
Tang Zheng’s eyes flickered as he noticed dozens of Spider Humanoids spreading out, surrounding him from all sides. They had clearly sensed the threat he posed.
Black and orange figures leaped and dashed through the jungle and across the ground.
In an instant,
Dozens of Spider Humanoids leaped down from overhead, becoming masses of shadow that enveloped Tang Zheng. At the same time, more Spider Humanoids appeared in the woods, surrounding him from below.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Dense, hard spider silk spewed forth from the group of Spider Humanoids, forming massive spiderwebs in mid-air that blanketed the entire area.
Faced with this scene, Tang Zheng nodded and commented, "Not bad teamwork."
Dimensional Shift.
Tang Zheng's figure vanished into thin air, easily flying out from the encirclement to the perimeter.
Watching the panicked Spider Humanoids who had lost their target, Tang Zheng raised his palm and aimed at the group that had delivered themselves right to him, now clustered together.
"Fireball!"
Boom!
A basketball-sized fireball flew from Tang Zheng's palm, transforming into a crimson streak of light that ignited the group of Spider Humanoids ahead before exploding.
On his status panel, numerous experience notifications flashed continuously.
"Should I leave some of them alive?"
"Never mind. It's better to take advantage of the chaos to clean up a batch of this type of demi-human."
Tang Zheng turned, and looking at the relentlessly charging Spider Humanoids, he raised his hand, unleashing ten streams of white light.
The Spider Humanoids' initially powerful assault quickly turned into a disadvantage as time went on, and they began to show signs of a steady retreat.
The scent of blood grew even stronger!
Excited roars from the Ogres, Iron Ratmen, and Demonkin rang out from time to time.
Hmm?
Tang Zheng's movements suddenly paused. He looked up towards the sky, obscured by the dense foliage. "They're here again."
[Discovered Fifth-Tier Magic "Clairvoyance." Requirement: Mental-Type Caster Level (29-35 Lv). Current conditions met...]
"Stargazer Far-Sight has been really busy lately." Tang Zheng merely glanced at the sky before looking away.
Ever since the Holy Kingdom cut off the grain trade, Stargazer Far-Sight of the Black Scripture began probing the hills. This meant that the Slane Theocracy had already noticed the abnormalities here.
"With this frequency of detection, the Slane Theocracy is taking this far more seriously than the Holy Kingdom. As expected of a nation that espouses 'Human Supremacy' and whose main purpose is to subjugate and eliminate demi-humans."
A thoughtful look flashed in Tang Zheng's eyes. He then raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "Has the probing gaze left?"
Whether it was his warrior's intuition, a caster's keen perception of magical power, or the bonuses provided by his Ninja job, he could faintly feel the weak sensation of being watched that the detection spell gave off.
However.
Tang Zheng wasn't concerned. The Player trait allowed him to evade this type of scrying magic.
He had also mastered the second-tier spell Detection Interference, obtained from the Monk job, which he could use for anti-detection.
The magical effect of Clairvoyance was similar to a bird's-eye view from high in the sky. While it could observe large areas, it couldn't see specific locations clearly.
Only when paired with positioning magic could it be used for close-range observation.
What Stargazer Far-Sight had been observing during this period wasn't just the southern region under Tang Zheng's control, but the entire hill region. Naturally, the gaze wouldn't linger in one spot for too long.
Looking at his status panel.
[Experience Bar: 2012322/410000]
His experience points had accumulated to around two million during this period.
