An elite level 10 ancient heroic soul gave Bai Xiaowen up to 30 points of black soul stone growth and soul essence points, as many as the leader of the same level, and three times as much as a normal elite!
Bai Xiaowen's eyes instantly became much more eager when he looked at the other ancient heroic souls.
But it's more than that.
Delifa's voice sounded with surprise: "Master, where did you capture these incomplete souls? It's amazing!"
"In the former Temple of the Guardian Sect, these heroic souls should have been warriors of the Guardian Sect during their lifetime." In "Song of the Forgotten Kings", it is mentioned that the "Ilia Sect" who built this temple actually represents the Guardian Sect.
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen asked again: "Do these incomplete souls have any special value, Delifa?"
"It's obvious, Master."
Delifa said with some excitement: "These heroic souls are fundamentally different from ordinary monsters. They no longer have complete soul consciousness, leaving only residual fighting instincts! These fighting instincts are the essence of fighting formed after thousands of tempers.
Techniques, and most importantly... they can be absorbed by your summoned creatures without restriction!"
"No restrictions? Are you saying that summoned creatures that have absorbed the souls of other powerful people can also absorb the souls of these ancient heroic souls again?" Bai Xiaowen confirmed.
"I must correct you, my dear master," Delifa's face appeared on the black soul stone, revealing a charming smile, "What the black soul stone absorbs is not the complete soul of the ancient heroic soul, but a battle.
It's just skills. No matter how many times it is absorbed, these combat skills will not have a substantial impact on the summoned creatures, and will only increase their relevant combat specialties to level 10."
After a pause, Delifa said with some regret: "Unfortunately, if the summoned creatures want to show their strength, they do not depend on their own combat specialties, but on the level of your specialties, master. They are different from me."
Among Bai Xiaowen's summoned creatures, except for Delifa and Kitts who have the ability to act independently, the other summoned creatures require Bai Xiaowen's refined control in order to exert their maximum combat power.
Therefore, no matter how high the combat expertise of other summoned creatures is, it is only a numerical difference and has no actual impact on the battle. Bai Xiaowen needs to rely on his own combat expertise to control them to fight.
"That's no problem," Bai Xiaowen breathed a sigh of relief, suppressing the surprise in his heart and said, "I can learn quickly by sharing the combat specialties of summoned creatures... You should have known this for a long time, Delifa."
Delifa suddenly realized: "Yes, when the master practices the skills of pole weapons, it is through this method of shared memory... But in this way, the master needs to learn a lot."
"no problem."
Bai Xiaowen counted the types of ancient heroic souls in the field.
The ancient shield bearer heroic soul represents the level 10 shield mastery specialty.
The heroic spirit of the ancient assassin has a level 10 advanced one-handed swordsmanship specialty.
The heroic soul of an ancient spellcaster has a level 10 meditation specialty.
The ancient archer hero soul has level 10 advanced shooting specialties...
There are new ancient heroic souls joining the battle in the distance, many of them holding two-handed swords or even heavy hammers.
Bai Xiaowen was very excited when he saw it.
"Come on...the more the merrier!"
Delifa did not participate in the battle, but stayed in the soul stone and was busy working on the fusion of the remaining souls.
It should be noted that soul fusion is not arranged haphazardly, it depends on the specific characteristics.
For example, the skeleton sword and shield wielder is most suitable for fusion with the ancient shield bearer's heroic soul. The goal is to improve the advanced equipment: shield mastery. However, the skeleton sword shield wielder's own "qualification" is average. Feed one or two shield bearer heroic soul fragments.
The improvement is not large, and it is still difficult to directly reach level 10.
Delifa concentrated on feeding a skeleton sword shield bearer, and after feeding the fragments of the heroic souls of three shield holders, its shield mastery specialty was upgraded from the original advanced level 5 to advanced level 6.
In comparison, the Shadow Assassin's qualifications are much better. A fragment of the Assassin's Heroic Soul has raised his one-handed swordsmanship from Advanced Level 5 to Advanced Level 7, and the second fragment has allowed him to break through Level 8.
.
The progress rate of the Bone Sorcerer is also similar to that of the Shadow Assassin. As for the Skeleton Warrior, it is much inferior, probably because it has not absorbed the complete soul of the strong man for mutation.
Bai Xiaowen simply asked Delifa not to feed the skeleton warriors for the time being, and to keep the corresponding heroic soul fragments until the skeleton warriors absorbed the souls of the strong and completed the mutation.
As for which strongman's soul the Skeleton Warrior should use, Bai Xiaowen was not in a hurry. Among his black soul stones, there was an intermediate knight leader who used a two-handed sword. There was no shortage of spare strongman's souls.
But now, Bai Xiaowen's horizons have broadened a lot. He wants to wait a little longer to see if he can get a top-notch powerful soul that can use a two-handed sword.
After killing more than a dozen ancient heroic souls, Bai Xiaowen finally cleared the corridor.
At the end of the corridor, there is a thick mechanical stone door with many strange patterns engraved on it. Beside the mechanical stone door, there is a stone tablet as high as one person, which is also engraved with some simple lines and letters.
Bai Xiaowen thought about the stone gate and stone tablet for a while.
"It's a code word, using graphics instead of letters."
Bai Xiaowen said: "Look at the stone tablet, the one-to-one correspondence between graphics and letters has been written in the same column position... For example, a triangle corresponds to 'a', and two crossed crosses correspond to 'β'... I will remember it
For a moment." The red light in his eyes flashed slightly, and all the contents on the stone tablet were imprinted in his mind.
There are a total of five pairs of letters and patterns on the stone tablet. As for the top of the stone gate, they are all strange patterns that are difficult to identify. There are two lines in total, with four figures on the top and bottom.
"What do these eight figures mean? Are they related to the code words on the stone tablet?" Li Shuyi asked.
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes and examined the eight patterns, then suddenly smiled and said: "No, this is just a simple graphical reasoning question. It's interesting. It seems that the sages of the Guardian Sect really like this."
In the latent shadow maze, each fork in the road was a different reasoning question, suggesting the correct path.
"Graphic reasoning question?" Li Shuyi repeated.
"Yes, the four figures in the upper row are the question stems. The four figures in the lower row are the options. We need to find the correct option through the patterns in the previous row, and then press the pattern..." Bai Xiaowen gestured
After a while, "Have you noticed that there are cracks around the four patterns in the lower row? This is the moving mechanism, but it is covered by moss and dust, making it difficult to see."
Li Shuyi looked at Bai Xiaowen in confusion.
"What are you looking at me for..." Even though Bai Xiaowen was solving the problem seriously, he could still feel the look in Li Shuyi's eyes.
"Nothing... Xiaowen, do you want to tell me, how did you figure out that this was a graphical reasoning question from the eight figures with no prompt information? There was not even a hint..." Li Shuyi found it difficult to understand.
, a question can be seen among the eight dry patterns.
"I have just said it." Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "There are cracks around the four patterns below, which means that they are all power buttons... It is not difficult to associate from this. If there is another reason, it is the four patterns above.
This pattern is too deliberate and contains the same pattern."
"What's the pattern?"
"They are all symmetrical figures."
Bai Xiaowen said simply, "From this we can imagine that these graphics are generated by folding photocopies, so we can fold them back and cover half of them to see more clearly... The first graphic looks like three
A line of circles, now what? What do you think it is?"
Li Shuyi suddenly realized: "This is...the Latin letter 'a'..."
Li Shuyi looked at the second figure in the first row and said: "Then this one that looks like the ancient Chinese traditional character 'men' should be 'β'... followed by 'γ', 'δ'..."
Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "Yes, so our option should be this one." He pressed his palm on the third pattern in the row below.
There was a rumbling sound, and the moss on the stone door peeled off one after another. Amid the flying dust, the heavy door slowly sank, revealing a second corridor.
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi stepped inside.
After killing a group of ancient heroic souls again, the two encountered a second stone door and stone tablet. Like the first door, the stone tablet had graphics and letters, but the stone door had different patterns.
For Bai Xiaowen, this kind of puzzle solving can only be regarded as a rest after the battle, allowing the super brain to warm up a little.
