The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Chapter 158 Can I say that it has been absorbed by me? (Two chapters in one)

Moreover, under Ren's continuous interference, the flesh-and-blood tree spirit was also extremely uncomfortable. The penetrating wound on its body caused by the high-level divine spell 'Sword of Judgment' has not been completely healed until now.

If it had been based on the previous healing speed, it stands to reason that the self-healing should have been completed five minutes ago.

But now, because of Ren's interference, the huge wound has only shrunk from the original diameter of a basin to the size of a fist.

The fundamental reason is that most of the roots that could have been used to heal wounds were cut off by Ren and fell to the ground in pieces.

The flesh and blood tree spirit is not low in intelligence. It knows that it cannot continue like this.

If it continues like this, it may really be worn to death by this little thing in front of it.

Its upper body suddenly stood up, and the small tentacles that had been squirming on the inside of the penetrating wound on its body suddenly retracted.

The next second, the flesh-and-blood tree spirit faced Ren and performed a unique move of flying and death rolling!

Ren's pupils shrank and he quickly rolled sideways to avoid it.

Just now, with just such a blow, the flesh-and-blood tree spirit swallowed the slightly injured Templar directly into his stomach.

Therefore, although the flesh and blood tree spirit had been using its roots to fight Ren, Ren was always wary of this big move of the flesh and blood tree spirit.

If this kind of ultimate attack hits head-on, it can be said that there is no chance of death!

Sure enough, the opponent used it again.

I saw the flesh-and-blood tree spirit's bloody mouth, passing closely by Ren's side. Its huge body and super-fast movements gave it a huge overall kinetic energy.

In an instant, the nearly twenty-meter-long flesh-and-blood tree spirit passed by like a meteor, punching a large hole in the thick white marble wall of the temple.

Suddenly, smoke and dust rose everywhere!

In addition, Ren also discovered that once the flesh-and-blood tree spirit begins to participate in the attack, its self-healing will completely stop. This may be because the energy consumption is too high, or it may be because the wound will be torn when the body attacks.

No wonder, it had not been involved in the attack just now.

The flesh-and-blood tree spirit stood up again and shook its huge body. It seemed that the collision with the wall just now made it feel dizzy.

However, when it woke up and realized that it had not hit Ren just now, it seemed extremely angry!

After confirming Ren's position again, the flesh and blood tree spirit looked up to the sky and roared wildly.

The next second, the flesh-and-blood tree spirit inhaled a large mouthful of surrounding air, and its entire body expanded twice. Then, from its bloody mouth, it spit out a large amount of bloody mucus, three hundred and sixty Spraying in all directions without any blind spots!

This scene was like a volcanic eruption, covering almost the entire temple hall. Even the three Rudolfs hiding in the corner of the temple hall could not escape!

Facing this almost witchcraft attack from the flesh and blood tree spirit, Rudolf's expression changed drastically, and he secretly regretted not taking measures earlier.

Now, even if he and Mazzini use their final trump card, it will be too late!

Templar Magini immediately raised the steel shield in his hand and blocked Rudolph in front of him.

Lagret, on the other hand, was half-crouching with a strong body, a pair of beautiful eyes staring at Ren, holding a blood-patterned steel shield in her left hand, her long and powerful thighs were tight, and her whole body was like a female ready to go. Leopard.

Lagree should have planned to rush towards Renne immediately, using the shield in her hand to block the breath of the flesh-and-blood tree spirit for Renne.

But the next second, she was stunned!

The same situation also happened at the top of the hall. The eagle transformed into a black-haired elf was about to swoop down and use the 'hurricane technique' to rescue, but soon, she also stopped her swooping action.

I saw the not-so-burly body in front of the flesh and blood tree spirit, advancing instead of retreating, and calmly took out a scroll from his arms!

"I originally wanted to keep this witchcraft scroll 'The Extremely Cold Wind' and use it as a backup during the canonization assessment, but I didn't expect it would be used here." Renn said softly with a little distress.

While muttering to himself, while not slowing down his movements at all, Ren quickly injected a bit of mental power into the witchcraft scroll "Extreme Cold Wind" and slightly controlled the direction of release.

In an instant, a stream of extremely cold air appeared out of thin air and blew dozens of meters in front of Ren, almost completely covering the huge flesh-and-blood tree spirit.

The next second, the extremely cold air flow and the bloody mucus spitted by the tree spirit clashed head-on.

The power of this cold air far exceeded Ren's expectations. The blood-colored mucus was quickly frozen upon contact, and like a large piece of ice, it quickly fell to the ground and shattered with a 'click'.

And this is far from over. After freezing the bloody mucus, these extremely cold air currents still have enough energy to attack the bloody tree spirit itself.

And the spit just now was extremely energy-consuming for the flesh and blood tree spirit.

I saw it panting heavily, the wound that penetrated its body expanded again, and except for a few large roots, all the roots had fallen off.

Facing the extremely cold air flow, the flesh and blood tree spirit had no time to effectively dodge or resist.

Soon, the roots and even the body of the flesh-and-blood tree spirit were covered with thick white frost and crystals. At the same time, its movement speed and attack speed were greatly reduced, as if it suddenly changed from a flexible monkey to an eighty-nine-year-old. hobbling old lady.

In addition, due to the huge difference between hot and cold in the air, a huge amount of white mist filled the temple hall at this time, obscuring Ren's figure. Even the huge and abnormal flesh-and-blood tree spirit could not see clearly. .

At this moment, Renn kicked hard with his right foot and waved the sword in his hand. Like an arrow from the string, he quickly shot towards the body of the flesh and blood tree spirit.

For more than ten meters along the road, there was a constant "clicking" sound. It turned out that these white roots fell to the ground one after another.

Under the influence of low temperatures, these originally tough and unusually strong roots have become extremely fragile.

Therefore, dozens of white tentacles were instantly cleared by Ren, and a long passage leading directly to the trunk of the flesh and blood tree spirit appeared!

Ren shook the shimmering giant sword in his hand, and in the next second, he had arrived at the torso of the flesh-and-blood tree spirit.

As Ren's left hand pressed against the rough skin of the flesh tree spirit, a low spell sounded in his mouth.

That's right, what Ren is performing is the lv2 level witchcraft 'Scorching Touch' that he has mastered!

After just over two seconds of chanting, a red light emerged from Ren's palm and quickly sank under the rough skin of the flesh-and-blood tree spirit.

With 22 points of mental power, the power of Ren's searing touch has been further enhanced.

Although it is not yet known how much it can be improved, it will definitely be much higher than before.

Um?

For a moment, Renn felt as if he had lit a powder keg!

It seems that the body of the flesh-and-blood tree spirit is full of gasoline, and all it needs is a fuse.

And his ‘scorching touch’ is that match.

I saw Ren's expression suddenly changed and he quickly retreated.

The next second!

"boom!!"

The flesh and blood tree spirit let out a scream!

I saw that the area where Ren had just touched exploded with a huge hole half a man high, and the blazing flames were continuing to burn the body of the flesh and blood tree spirit at the wound.

The surrounding roots were desperately trying to extinguish the flames at the wound, but due to the slow speed caused by the "extreme cold wind" from the witchcraft scroll, the fire-extinguishing effect was not obvious.

This makes the burning gradually become more intense.

Ren was immediately overjoyed!

Obviously, this shows that his previous judgment was accurate.

This flesh and blood tree spirit has the word "tree" in its name. Unexpectedly, it is really afraid of fire.

Ren felt that he should thank the person who was the first to name the flesh-and-blood tree spirit.

Accurate naming contains the key to defeating the enemy.

Almost without hesitation, Renn decided to beat the drowned dog!

To borrow a sentence from a great man, it is: 'It is better to chase the poor bandits with the remaining courage, and not to be a hegemon in name only! ’

Immediately, Ren exerted force on the soles of his feet again, and he quickly circled the flesh and blood tree spirit to attack. Once he found a suitable opportunity, he would release the witchcraft'scorching touch' on other parts of the flesh and blood tree spirit.

Although the flesh-and-blood tree spirit instinctively tried its best to avoid Ren's attack, after being hit by the witchcraft 'extreme cold wind', its body, including its roots, slowed down greatly, making it completely unable to avoid Ren. attack and approach.

So, in just over ten seconds, many parts of the flesh and blood tree spirit's body were ignited by Ren!

And with the continuous explosions in multiple parts, it seemed to have caused some kind of chain reaction!

Suddenly, the nearly 20-meter-long body of the flesh-and-blood tree spirit stopped moving. It no longer avoided Ren's attack, but trembled slightly.

The next second, the huge body of the flesh and blood tree spirit suddenly expanded and glowed with a fiery red color.

At this moment, its body seemed to be filled with magma, like a volcano about to erupt.

Renn was immediately shocked and quickly retreated!

He was still worried about whether the flesh-and-blood tree spirit had other trump cards, or some desperate tricks.

But the next second, under Ren's gaze, the huge body of the flesh and blood tree spirit suddenly shrank back and quickly shriveled up. At the same time, it emitted a large amount of pungent and fishy black smoke.

At this moment, the densely packed roots on its body seemed to have lost all vitality, and hung down lifelessly, motionless.

It seemed that the expansion and contraction just now released all the energy in the flesh and blood tree spirit's body.

For a moment, the flesh and blood tree spirit was silent again!

At this time, the system prompts:

[Your skill Giant Bear Swordsmanship has been improved, and your experience value is +1291]

[Your skill Searing Touch has been improved, experience value +35]

[You have experienced a battle, the experience value of the knight (extraordinary) is +276, and the experience value of the wizard apprentice (extraordinary) is +112]

When Ren saw it, he felt relieved.

Fortunately, although this flesh and blood tree spirit is powerful, there is no second stage or transformation.

At this moment, he should be dead for sure.

Huh?

What's this?

Ren keenly noticed that he seemed to sense a special faint aura under the corpse of the flesh and blood tree spirit.

This kind of breath was the first time that Ren had come into contact with it. It was full of a sense of vitality, vastness and spirituality. In addition, it seemed to be accompanied by a hint of unspeakable evil?

Immediately, Ren quickly cut open the bottom of the flesh tree spirit.

A crystal the size of a walnut and a small pale golden tree wrapped in a fist-sized transparent film appeared before Ren's eyes.

hiss!

This is

What he sensed just now was probably the aura of the light golden tree. The light golden tree was all light golden, like a divine object. But Ren, with his keen eyes, could detect that there seemed to be a hint of black energy under its light golden appearance. Stop circulation.

The breath of that crystal is quite similar to the breath of evil energy crystal dropped by the Evil Spirit Knight, but it is more intense and vast.

After thinking about it, Ren picked up the tip of his sword and took out the crystal first.

As soon as I hold it in my hand, the system prompts:

【Ding! The test found unknown absorbable energy, yes/no? (Note: After absorption, it can be converted into designated professional experience points.)]

really!

This should be some kind of energy body that is more advanced than evil energy crystals.

After working hard for so long, it’s finally time to reap the rewards.

Ren was overjoyed and chose 'Yes!' without hesitation! ’

The next second, the rich black energy that had been flowing in the walnut-sized crystal instantly passed through Ren's arm and rushed towards his body.

It was still the same as last time. This time, Renn himself still didn't feel any discomfort, and the entire absorption and transformation process was over.

【Ding! A total of 1536 points of extraordinary experience points have been converted. Please choose Knight (extraordinary)/Wizard Apprentice (extraordinary)/Beast Tamer (extraordinary) to upgrade. 】

Tsk tsk!

The flesh and blood tree spirit is so powerful!

Ren discovered that he was a little in love with the evil things from the Mother Tree Sect!

This reward is too generous!

After thinking for a while, Ren decided to continue choosing the Beast Tamer (Extraordinary) to add points.

The reason is also very simple. The professional experience of a knight or wizard apprentice can be accumulated slowly through combat, but this is not the case for a beast tamer.

In addition, he is currently a beast tamer (extraordinary) lv3 (12/500). After choosing a beast tamer and adding points, he can be upgraded by two levels again.

But if you choose knight or wizard apprentice, you can only upgrade one level.

As for the reason for not prompting the blacksmith, it is because in Renn's view, the blacksmith is not an extraordinary profession after all, and it is not difficult to improve.

As Ren thought silently in his mind, ‘Animal Tamer! ’

Instantly, two consecutive system prompts appeared:

[Congratulations, your beast tamer (extraordinary) career level has been improved! 】

[Congratulations, your beast tamer (extraordinary) career level has been improved! 】

Seeing the Beast Tamer (Extraordinary) level on the panel changing from lv3 (12/500) to lv5 (48/2000), Renn couldn't help but reveal a bright smile on his face.

Read on.

I saw a prompt at the bottom of the panel: 3 remaining attribute points, and 5 remaining skill points.

Among them, the remaining attribute points have returned to three points again, and the remaining skill points have reached an astonishing five points.

This makes Renn feel like he is getting richer and stronger the more he fights!

Since there was still a small pale golden tree that he had not checked, Renn did not immerse himself in the joy of upgrading for too long, but immediately took out the fist-sized pale golden tree from the body of the flesh and blood tree spirit.

At this time, the system prompt sounded again:

【Ding! It is detected that the host has obtained the mother tree seeds, triggering a job change - mother tree sacrifice (extraordinary)! 】

[The prerequisites for changing to the Mother Tree Sacrifice are: 1. Knight (Extraordinary) lv3 or above, Wizard Apprentice (Extraordinary) lv3 or above; 2. Physique 15 points or more, spirit 18 points or more; 3. Believe in the Mother Tree or use the seeds of the Mother Tree. If the current conditions are met, do you want to switch to Mother Tree Sacrifice (Extraordinary)? 】

hiss!

Seeing the job transfer information prompted by the system, Renn's eyes suddenly widened!

This was the first time he had seen a job transfer with such high prerequisites.

It actually requires knights and wizard apprentices to reach level 3 or above.

Ren's brain was working rapidly, and after a few seconds, he resolutely clicked "No!"

The reason is also very simple. The Mother Tree Sect has been classified as a cult by the empire. If he changes his profession to become a Mother Tree Priest (extraordinary), he will naturally be on the opposite side of the Empire. Renn does not think that the extraordinary profession of Mother Tree Priest can bring him Profit that matches the huge risk!

【Ding! The test found that the mother tree seeds contain a large amount of life energy. Yes/no? Absorb it? (Note: The mother tree seeds will be destroyed after being absorbed.)]

Huh?

Can it still be like this?

After thinking for a moment, Renn chose "Yes!"

Since he is not changing jobs, he will naturally use it to absorb it, at least it will be used on himself.

In an instant, from the light golden mother tree seeds, there was a warm current that made Ren indescribably comfortable, and the ecstasy could not be described as one tenth of it!

At this time, four system prompts also came quietly:

【Congratulations! Your physical attributes are improved! 】

【Congratulations! Your strength attributes are improved! 】

【Congratulations! Your agility attribute is improved! 】

【Congratulations! Your mental attributes have been improved! 】

this.

All attributes +1!

Mother tree seed cow!

Please give me a dozen!

When Ren came back to his senses, he really didn't expect that four system prompts would appear as soon as he arrived!

At this time, the white mist also began to gradually dissipate.

In the corner of the hall, Rudolf, Lagret and Machini stared blankly at the obviously dead flesh and blood tree spirit in front of them, as well as Ren standing with a sword beside them.

The three of them didn't know what to say for a moment!

The situation changes so quickly!

In half a minute, the flesh-and-blood tree spirit that had the upper hand just now was lying motionless at Ren's feet.

At this moment, under the sunlight shining through the gap in the hall, Ren's whole body was coated with a faint golden light, making him look particularly tall.

The tree spirit of flesh and blood, which was originally a small mountain, was now charred black, emitting bursts of black smoke, and was completely reduced to a background of golden light.

At this time, Rudolph also realized something, frowned, stepped forward and looked at Renn carefully, and then slowly asked: "Renn, the large-scale frost attack you just performed must be witchcraft, right?" ?”

Because his line of sight was blocked by Machini just now, he didn't see the scene when Ren took out the witchcraft scroll.

Ren looked up and saw that the expression of the dean Rudolf was both joyful and slightly worried. He immediately understood what was going on.

It seems that Jenny was right what she said last time.

Supporters of the church and the orthodox path of chivalry are quite disgusted with witchcraft and wizards.

Wren understands this, because this is almost the same as the struggle for orthodoxy in the fairy novels of the past, or the difference between capital and socialism in modern society.

"That's right, Dean Rudolf, I just used a witchcraft scroll captured from the wizard's apprentice, called 'The Extremely Cold Wind'."

When Rudolf heard that it was from the seizure of trophies, he immediately relaxed his brows and looked much better. He nodded and said, "That's good. Although witchcraft is powerful, many unpredictable dangers will occur during the learning process."

After a pause, Rudolph continued: "And divine magic is not only more powerful but also safer. Ren, I hope you can understand this."

Naturally, Renn would not argue with Rudolf about this issue at this time. He smiled slightly and nodded again.

However, suddenly, Ren looked around in confusion. Just after he killed the flesh and blood tree spirit, he felt a vague sense of spying.

This sense of spying was very weak. Renn looked up again and found a few birds fluttering away from the top of the hall. He shook his head slightly and thought to himself:

"Maybe I'm too sensitive! I mistook the curious watching of some birds and beasts as the watching of intelligent creatures."

At this time, Rudolph said something that made Ren's heart skip a beat.

Just listen to Rudolf muttering to himself in confusion:

"It shouldn't be! After the death of an evil creature at the level of a flesh-and-blood tree spirit, there should be at least a large piece of evil energy crystal left behind."

"In fact, normally speaking, there should be fragments of evil energy left. How could there be nothing left behind?"

"Ren, have you seen crystals similar to those dropped by the Evil Ghost Knight after his death?" Rudolph turned around and asked.

"Haha, not really. By the way, Chief Rudolf, is it possible that the high-level magic 'Sword of Judgment' you just released is too powerful?" Renn laughed.

I'm sorry!

Father Rudolf, this thing exists, but it has been absorbed by me.

I can't spit it out to you either.

"This is indeed a possibility." Rudolph frowned and thought for a while, then nodded, seeming to agree with Ren's statement.

"Prince, let's retreat now." Ren said quickly, a little guilty.

After all, the high-level divine scroll 'Sword of Judgment' still played a very important role in killing the flesh and blood tree spirit, but the problem now is that all the benefits have been 'swallowed' by Ren.

"Wait a minute, there should be something from the Mother Tree Sect here, and it needs the protection of the flesh and blood tree spirit."

"In other words, there must be something here that is important to the Mother Tree Sect. Otherwise, the flesh tree spirits and evil spirit knights would not be born for no reason."

"Forehead"

Could it be that pale golden sapling the size of a thumb?

Dean, can I say that you have been absorbed by me?

Renn secretly glanced at Dean Rudolf who was looking around, feeling even more guilty.

But at this moment, he could only remain silent, following Reverend Rudolf, pretending to be searching around the temple hall.

Suddenly, Templar Machini was in the middle of the hall and shouted: "Priest, there is a stone slab here!"

Renn raised his eyebrows, Huh? Is there really something to this?

The two people immediately walked over quickly, and when they saw it, they saw that Magini dug out an obsidian slab more than one meter long under the tree spirit's original position, with something written in spiritual script (Akkadian) on it. .

Rudolph nodded and said quite confidently: "This should be it."

"Is the flesh and blood tree spirit guarding this thing?" Templar Makini asked curiously.

As a Templar Knight of the church, he has never learned this kind of spiritual writing. On ordinary days, he has no time to learn combat skills and pray, so naturally he cannot be distracted to learn other things.

However, as a dean, Rudolf has done some research on spiritual texts.

"The great mother tree follows the humblest servant. Praying to you"

Renn looked at it carefully for a few times in surprise, but then he lost interest.

Because if he was not mistaken, this should be a sacrificial ritual or prayer, that is, the ritual language used in sacrificial rituals, used to pray to the so-called mother tree.

Obviously, this means almost nothing to him, and he is not a mother tree sacrificer.

If Ren had just changed his profession to the 'Mother Tree Priest', this prayer would be of great use and could be studied carefully, but now, it is really useless.

"Machini, dig out this piece and take it back." After thinking for a while, Rudolph said.

Although after Rudolf translated it, he thought it was just an ordinary prayer, but after thinking about it carefully, he thought that the obsidian slab guarded by the flesh tree spirit should have some special purpose or significance.

However, perhaps because he did not have enough knowledge in this area, he could not immediately see the importance of this obsidian stone slab.

Watching the Templar Machini digging out the heavy obsidian slab, Renn glanced at Rudolph suspiciously and said to himself:

"Priest, do you really think that the flesh and blood tree spirit is guarding this stone slab?"

Soon, Ren and his party returned to the entrance of the temple garden.

At this time, seeing Ren and his party coming out, the night watchmen and security guards immediately surrounded them.

After a conversation, everyone couldn't help but gasp when they heard that there was a monster nearly twenty meters long inside!

Judging from everyone's expressions, they all looked happy.

Otherwise, it is not difficult to tell from the corpses of the fallen Templar knights that ordinary people like them would definitely suffer heavy casualties, or even be wiped out!

After thinking about this, the short Matteo and other night watchmen looked at their deputy security officer Ren with grateful eyes.

——

After Ren and others left the temple hall, the eagle at the top of the hall flapped its wings and flew down.

When it was about to land, the eagle suddenly transformed into a black-haired elf. A tall and slender figure walked calmly to the corpse of the flesh-and-blood tree spirit and inspected it.

"It's strange. The witchcraft scroll that the human knight tore open just now was clearly from the frost system, but the flesh and blood tree spirit obviously died from fire witchcraft." The black-haired elf looked confused.

She had witnessed the entire battle just now, but soon after Ren tore open the witchcraft scroll 'Extreme Cold Wind', a thick fog filled the entire hall.

At this time, no one else except Renn himself could see clearly what Renn did at that time.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the black-haired elf has such doubts.

"Could it be that the human knight just performed flame witchcraft?"

The black-haired elf quickly thought of a possibility.

"Maybe it's because the other party brought a fire witchcraft scroll."

"Huh? This kind of breath is"

The black-haired elf's beautiful eyes suddenly widened twice, his cherry mouth opened wide with an expression of disbelief.

Because she had just sensed a trace of the remaining scent of the Elf Mother Tree's seeds.

She was naturally very familiar with this kind of scent, it was almost exactly the same.

"No, this should be what the Mother Tree Sect believes in, the aura of the seeds of the Dark Mother Tree!"

The next second, the black-haired elf reacted.
