BXBX NOVEL Chapter 414 - Stage 2
Chapter 414 - Stage 2
[The Earth has met the condition to advance the Game to Stage 2!]
[Stage 2 of the Game: Dimensional Contention has officially started!]
[Earth Dimensional Tower will appear in two months!]
The notification did not stop at his skill fusions, but also an unexpected announcement as well. Tang Shaoyang rubbed his chin as he tried to remember the early times when the zombies started to appear.
He recalled there was the same notification, telling the Game started. It did tell him back then it was stage 1 of the Game, Survival for the Fittest.
"Stage 2… What\'s the difference? Will a stronger creature than a zombie appear now?" He walked to the edge of the rooftop and around him. No creature spawned just like the zombie spawned in the same room as him when the game started.
Nothing changed aside from the voice telling him that Earth had entered stage 2 of the Game. There was also an Earth Dimensional Tower that would appear in two months.
Tang Shaoyang understood nothing of it. There was nothing changed either after the announcement.
—Origin may know something about this. You can save your confusion for later. Let\'s focus on what is in front of you.
Zaneos advised Tang Shaoyang. His intonation was changed, more polite and respectful than before. It was not just a casual Teacher and Student, but a Master and a retainer.
"You are right, we have no clue. The System wants us to explore and find out everything by ourselves," Tang Shaoyang agreed.
He felt that the system was defective, it did not even give them a proper guide. If there was a proper guide, more people would be still alive for sure.
Since he would not be able to find anything about the announcement or the change within, he threw the thoughts behind his head and focused on what was in front of him, the skills.
Tang Shaoyang was not that unhappy that his three skills were removed. Meaning the skill that got his three skills replaced was a better skill.
The Spirit Eyes were not active, he closed his eyes. He was trying [Dragon Sense]. To his surprise, he could feel the layout of a big area around him. Then he detected people through his senses.
He could feel the heat, yes, the heat was coming from the people. He could feel thirteen people in the area. A few of them were individuals while the others were in a group.
From their position, he could tell that these people were watching him, fighting the spirit. He did not prevent them from watching him. No, he wanted them to watch him so they could know how strong their leader was. Giving a sense of security to them that there was always their strong leader on their back to protect them in the moment of danger.
Tang Shaoyang got up, there were millions of zombie corpses waiting to be sacrificed. He had to finish all of them before their next move.
He walked on the air and returned to the beforehand spot, "Two hundred thousand sacrifices is Grade A Spirit, double? Let\'s double it, I am confident even above Grade A+ Spirit is getting summoned."
It was not blind confidence, that was because he just went through the advancement. He had become a lot stronger with the drastic increase of attributes for sure. Even without using skill, he was confident winning against the Grade A+ Spirit based on how strong the Grade A Spirit was.
Tang Shaoyang doubled the sacrifices and then he cast the skill, [Spirit Summoning].
[You have summoned Grade A+ Spirit, Furi the Death Specter!]
A hazy figure made of black smoke was summoned. From the naked eyes, the figure did not have a physical body. It looked like that but through the Dragon Eyes. He could see an overwhelming Dark Energy within the hazy figure.
The hazy figure was holding a black scythe. The same, the scythe was hazy, it did not have the physical form. But he did not doubt that the scythe could hurt people physically.
—Specter!!!
Zowen gasped in surprise. He could feel the shock and also fear? It was rare for Zowen to have a fear, Tang Shaoyang was surprised.
\'Do you know something about Specter?\' He could not help become curious about the thing that could invoke a little bit of fear in the Lightning Magus. The creature must be unusual.
—There are many types of the specter, but this one is the most annoying even for a Magus like me. Normal Magic could not kill the specter, we have to use a specific Light Magic to kill it.
"But this specter is in the form of a spirit. I don\'t need to kill it but defeat it," Tang Shaoyang replied as he watched the specter.
The specter was doing something that the other spirits would do. Checking the surroundings, trying to find out where he was, and so on.
—The main problem is, a physical attack does not work either. The specter does not have a physical form. The same for the scythe, you can\'t block the scythe or even parry it. However, the scythe can harm you if you get hit by it.
Tang Shaoyang squinted his eyes at the specter. The specter also looked at him. The gleaming red eyes were radiating killing intent. He could feel it by just exchanging glances.
"That\'s kinda unfair, but that makes me want to contract this specter. Don\'t you think this guy would be pretty strong, for the battle and also sneaking around?" Tang Shaoyang was considering establishing a contract with the specter.
Furi said nothing as the blurry dark figure rushed toward him. Not the fastest but he had encountered so far yet quite fast for the most creature he had encountered so far.
"You said that physical and normal magic won\'t work, but I have something other than those two!" Tang Shaoyang extended his hand forward toward the specter.
His right hand discharged dark red energy, forming a half-circle shield. Yes, he tried to use Slayer Energy to fight the specter. Slayer energy was something that Zaneos and Zowen were not aware of, so he was experimenting with this mysterious yet powerful energy each time he had a chance to.
—This might work, it\'s impressive that you can control the violent energy to this extent.
Zaneos commented as he realized what Tang Shaoyang tried to do.
Sure enough, the tip blade of the scythe hit the Slayer Energy shield. Slayer Energy could be used to fight the specter.
[Slayer Blade]
Right after he blocked the attack, he tried another new skill. The dark red energy formed a crescent blade right above his head. There was a glistening reflection on the blade that the shield he formed did not have.
Swoosh!
The crescent blade shot toward the specter\'s chest. The blade did not pass through the specter\'s body, the blade hit the specter.
Boom!
The blade dragged the specter and crashed to the closest building. The dust rose, as the rubbles fell on top of the specter. But the rubbles merely passed through the specter, indicating the specter did not have a physical body.
"If I don\'t have the Slayer Energy, I might be troubled to fight the specter. But once I have the solution, the specter is quite weak," Tang Shaoyang commented as he sent three Slayer Blades more, pinning down the specter.
