Chapter 17 Evolution
The irretrievable magic forced Lu Cang to make a choice.

To ensure survival, we cannot delay any longer.

We must kill this lord first!
The ice spikes kept firing non-stop!

Lu Cang didn't know how many more ice spikes would be needed to kill it.

Therefore, the optimal solution is to use all the remaining magic power for attack!

boom!
The ice spike spun and pierced the giant snake's lower jaw, drawing blood before exploding!

An ice explosion has occurred!

The previous ice spike had just exploded when a new, spinning, piercing ice spike pierced the newly opened wound!
The more thorns, the more prickles!

Is this the vitality of a lord-level being?

So tenacious...

It's on a completely different level of combat power compared to the previous monsters.

It's at least a thousand times stronger?
The monsters outside can be killed instantly with just two of their seven fireballs.

How many complete spells has this BOSS already consumed?

If we only consider health, it's probably more than ten thousand times that of the monsters outside...

Moreover, its attack strength.

I'm afraid my body would die if I just touched it.

magic……

It's gradually becoming insufficient.

But the giant snake's body was still writhing.

His entire head was frozen solid, how come he's still alive?

Since entering the second stage, I have fired thirty ice spikes in a row.

With each spell cast, Lu Cang carefully calculated the use of magic power.

Strive to maximize the power and minimize the magic consumption of every ice spike.

And under such careful calculation...

Each ice spike provided Lu Cang with 15 points of proficiency experience.

You never know your limits until you push yourself.

However, in order to ensure the lethality of the ice picks.

No matter how much you try to reduce mana loss, you must use 2% of your mana to cast Ice Spike.

The Ice Spike spell, now with 2% mana release, has surpassed the damage output of the initial 3% version.

Despite possessing the talent "God-level Proficiency Evolution".

That way you can keep improving and evolving!
But is it really possible to die in a place like this right at the beginning? To die in the very first dungeon adventure?

A sense of resentment welled up inside me.

The magic power within his body was being squeezed out.

Boom boom boom!

boom!
However, an unexpected turn of events occurred again!
The giant snake, which was almost frozen into a zombie, shattered countless blocks of ice once again!
Its rotting, broken head turned towards Lu Cang...

"die……"

"Die!"

Why won't you die!

Lu Cang's resentment turned into anger. He didn't know why things had turned out this way, why he was about to die for no reason...

why?
All the final magic power was concentrated!

"Ice Cone Proficiency EXP +10"

"Ice Cone Proficiency EXP +10"

"Ice Cone Proficiency EXP +10"

"Ice Cone Proficiency EXP +10"

……

compression.

Compress the ice pick to make it harder and spin it faster!

You don't need a large icicle; it needs to be long and thin!
The magic continued to pour out.

Meanwhile, Lu Cang's mind was constantly ringing with notifications that his proficiency was increasing.

This time, the improvement in proficiency was extremely rapid.

A long, needle-like ice spike condensed beside Lu Cang.

The high-speed rotation caused a chilling cold air to rise throughout the cave.

The magic has run out.

But it's not enough.

It can even over-cast spells! It's squeezing all my power out of me, because if I can't kill it, I'll die anyway.

Not a single drop of the tide remained.

Instead, there is an emptiness within the body.

That's a place where not a drop of magic remains.

It's depletion...

It's nothingness...

A strong feeling of dizziness washed over me!

boom!
Also at this moment!
The ice needles beside Lu Cang disappeared!
puff!
All that could be seen was a long stream of blood spraying with ice shards! A long column of blood gushed towards the top of the cave!

The giant snake's head was completely pierced through, and not only its head, but the ice needle also went straight into its body through the hole in its head!

The entire body of the long snake was frozen into an ice sculpture in a very short time.

Lu Cang only saw this last scene.

It had already gone dark, and before I lost consciousness, I could still vaguely hear some voices coming from my mind.

"Magic Enhancement Spell: Magic Tide has evolved"

"You have learned: Mana Void (Second Tier) (Forbidden Technique)"

"Magic Void Proficiency EXP +10" "Magic Enhancement Spell: Magic Void (LV: 10) - Automatic operation, draws more magic from the void"

……

Iz pushed open the stone door and stepped inside, catching Lu Cang as he was about to fall to the ground.

Sighed softly.

"I'm sorry, but if I don't put pressure on you in this way, you might never have gotten into a crisis. Your talent is too great."

Iz snapped her fingers lightly.

The elements in this space have become rich and vibrant again.

Iz looked at the giant snake in front of her.

"Your mission is complete."

clatter--

"Monster Frenzy (Tier 4) (LV: 100)"

The spell is dispelled.

boom!
The giant snake, frozen into an ice sculpture, crumbled into scattered ice fragments and collapsed with a crash.

The giant snake itself wasn't actually that powerful.

However, Iz used a monster-enraged spell, which made it much stronger.

……

My body is so light...

But I can still feel my body.

So warm.

It didn't feel cold at all.

Did I win?
Could it be that I died again and was reincarnated in another world?
Lu Cang slowly opened his eyes.

What I saw was long, smooth, emerald-green hair.

A familiar face.

Kumiloni.

Lu Cang suddenly sat up!

An instinctive alert!

She stood on the sofa.

However, Kumiloni looked at him with a gentle smile.

"you're awake."

"Well, I might need to help Izzy clear up some misunderstandings between you and me."

Lu Cang's right hand was pointed at Kumironi, but his vigilance remained.

His voice deepened as he asked, "A misunderstanding?"

Kumironi twirled a strand of hair, looking somewhat helpless, and sighed, "Little Lu Cang, actually, Iz didn't leave you there to kill you."

"It did this so that you could break through the limits of magic."

Lu Cang remained on high alert.

But at the same time, he also started to observe his own physical condition.

The magical tide has disappeared.

The magic power within the body no longer rises and falls like the tides; instead, it is a tiny void, a void like a black hole.

The hollow interior holds its own magic.

Lu Cang couldn't sense the limit of the void, only that he could draw magic power from it at any time.

Furthermore, the total amount of magic power...

It's about fifty times more than before.

It's equivalent to more than five thousand times the magic power when it first awakened...

"See... if Iz hadn't shown you any hostility, you wouldn't have felt like you were in a life-or-death situation, would you?"

"Only when you feel desperate will you unleash all your potential."

Lu Cang's body gradually relaxed a bit.

"Besides, if he really wanted to kill you, he wouldn't have brought you back for me to treat..."

"Who would bring back someone who hates them to the core?"

Kumiloni is right.

Lu Cang then noticed his body; his right hand had fully recovered, and all discomfort had disappeared.

rather say.

I feel that my physique is stronger than before, and my originally somewhat thin body has gradually developed some muscle.

My physical condition is much better than before I entered the dungeon.

As for magic...

"Magic Void (LV: 92)"

"Ice Cone (LV: 100) (To be evolved)"

"Fireball (LV: 91)"

"Wind Blade Technique (LV: 86)"

"Illumination (LV: 55)"

"Lightning Strike (LV: 43)"

"Cross of Light (LV: 39)"

Magic Tide has been replaced by Magic Void, Ice Cone has reached level 100, and a prompt indicating that it is waiting to be evolved has appeared.

dong dong dong-

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Kumiloni said softly, "Please come in."

Izparut then pushed the door open and came in.
