1393: Dust of Evil Thoughts

Dust of Evil Thoughts

What surprised Fang Heng, even more, was that the human face in the air actually melted rapidly under the illumination of the fiercely burning soul flame!

Swoosh!!!

The old man Herta stepped forward and stabbed the rune long sword into the monster's head.

"Bang!!!"

The entire face exploded!

Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and noticed that there seemed to be specks of black matter falling from the exploded face.

"Hurry up! Condense a barrier!" Herta shouted as he retreated.

The necromancy attendants immediately reacted. They took out the Book of the Dead and summoned the bone barrier again, enveloping everyone in the barrier.

Seeing that the crisis was over, Herta nodded at Fang Heng.

"Traveler, thank you for your help this time. Otherwise, we would have a headache. If you need any help in the future, you can come to the Lent Chamber of Commerce to find us."

Fang Heng noticed that the others were looking at him differently.

He was also a little puzzled. Why did the soul flame that he focused on seem to have an additional increase in strength?

After looking at the game log carefully, Fang Heng roughly figured out the reason.

The soul flame condensed by the magic array was related to the strength of one's soul, spiritual power, necromancy level, and talent in necromancy.

His personal soul strength was extremely high, and his talent in necromancy was even higher. This was why his soul flame had erupted.

Elisa used the Book of the Dead to gather the black specks of dust on the ground, wrapped them in a piece of paper, and handed it to Fang Heng.

"What is this?"

"The dust of evil thoughts is a substance condensed after a resentful creature is killed. We don't know its specific use, but many outsiders who seek guidance are collecting it. I think it should be useful to you."

"Alright, thank you."

Fang Heng took the paper bag from Elisa.

[Hint: Player has obtained item-dust of evil thoughts (0.78g).]

Item: Dust of evil thoughts.

Description: A type of sandy soil with a special power. Its use is unknown. Many forces in Punoze are buying it from outsiders.

Soon, half an hour later, the undead storm gradually faded away. Seeing that the crisis was completely over, Herta signaled the team to undo the bone barrier and prepare to set off again.

While everyone was preparing, Herta and Fang Heng started chatting.

"The undead storms we encountered these few times were much more violent than before. I don't know what happened, but it made me feel a little uneasy."

Herta nodded to Fang Heng and said, "Thank you. Fortunately, with your help, we managed to survive this storm. There is a long interval between each undead storm. We shouldn't encounter it again."

Fang Heng nodded and took the opportunity to ask about the situation in this world, "Herta, other than me, have you met many believers who seek guidance?"

"Yes, indeed. You are not the first believer I met. Most of them died in the undead storm after coming to Punoze."

Herta's tone was a little sad as he continued, "Oh right, the Tower of Bones you're going to is in the main city of Catantul. Later, we'll go to the nearest city together. There's a teleportation array there. Elisa will also go to Catantul to prepare for her exams. She can bring you there so that you can look after each other along the way."

"Thank you."

"We should be the ones thanking you. However, the main city of Catantul is not open to ordinary people. The Tower of Bones is one of the holy places for necromancers. Ordinary necromancers have to pass a series of tests before they are allowed to enter."

Fang Heng frowned, wondering if there was some kind of messy assessment trial.

"I was invited by the Tower of Bones to meet a teacher."

"Invited?"

Herta and Elisa looked at Fang Heng in surprise.

Elisa asked, "Do you have an invitation card? Can I see it?"

"Of course."

Fang Heng took the invitation card from his backpack and handed it over.

Elisa took the invitation card and examined it carefully. Then, a relieved look appeared on her face.

No wonder.

It turned out that he was a guest invited by the Tower of Bones. No wonder he had such powerful spiritual power and talent in necromancy.

Elisa sneaked a few more glances at Fang Heng, becoming even more curious about him.

She had never heard of anyone being invited to the Tower of Bones for an interview. Was the power he had just displayed all he had?

Herta also looked at Fang Heng's invitation card and carefully handed it back to him.

"I'm being presumptuous. This is indeed an invitation from the Tower of Bones. With this card, you can enter the Tower of Bones without taking the test. You have to be careful. Many people have ulterior motives for this card, so it's best not to let outsiders see it."

"Thanks for the reminder."

Fang Heng nodded at Herta and carefully put away the invitation card.

After the team was ready, they set off again.

Along the way, the guards of the Chamber of Commerce who accompanied Fang Heng were obviously more respectful to him. Fang Heng also chatted with Elisa for a while and roughly understood the situation in the world of Punoze.

Elisa was a very cheerful girl, and both of them had suffered through some hardships. After talking, she invited Fang Heng to visit her new house in Catantul.

They chatted and laughed along the way. Soon, they arrived at the nearest medium-sized Undead City.

From afar, Fang Heng could see the dense magic patterns on the city walls and the towering mage towers in the city.

The city's outer walls stood tall, but there was not a single guard at the city gate entrance. It was extremely lax to enter and exit the city.

After the team arrived, they did not check anything and directly entered the city.

According to Elisa, most of the cities in the world of Punoze were not guarded. The biggest function of the city was to resist the undead storm.

Compared to the desolation of the outside world, the interior of the city was extremely prosperous.

Fang Heng looked around curiously through the car window.

The people of this world were used to wearing hoods to hide themselves in loose gray robes.

"There are special magic arrays inside and outside the city. Most of them are specially set up to block the undead storm. The teleportation channel is in the mage tower in the center of the city."

"Alright, thank you."1

Elisa nodded at Fang Heng and said, "I'll also be studying necromancy with a private tutor in Catantul during this period of time to prepare for the high-tier necromancer exam. However, I won't be studying in the Tower of Bones. My cousin has already found a place for me in the urban area. After I settle down, I'll look for you."

"Okay, sure."

After entering the main city, Fang Heng followed the team and arrived at the entrance of the mage tower without stopping.

A six-story mage tower.

At the entrance of the mage tower, Herta bade farewell to the two of them. He said, "Fang Heng, only qualified necromancers are allowed to enter Catantul. We can only send the two of you here. There's still a batch of goods that needs to be transported later. That's all for now. Take care on the way."

"Alright, thank you."
