Chapter 85: 66. Good luck in operation
Translator: 549690339
Noland Lee heard the conversation behind him, but couldn’t spare the attention to listen to the content for now.
His focus was entirely on modifying the Undead Runes.
An excited shimmer danced in his eyes.
After he modified an Undead Rune, the system sent the promised message.
[System Message: You have altered the state of the Magic Protective Shield by modifying Undead Runes.]
[Passive Deconstruction Activated! ]
[Your degree of deconstruction for the “Magic Protective Shield” has increased from 0.3% to 0.8%.]
[You have obtained the following Deconstruction Results:]
The Energy Points needed for the Harmless Deconstruction of “Martyr’s Ten Commandments” have been reduced from 9915 to 9910, a total reduction of 5 points.]
“Soul Shield” Spell Blueprint completion degree has increased from 50% to 55%. When it reaches 100%, the defect of this spell will be fixed.]
This was undoubtedly exciting good news!
Noland Lee’s eyes sparkled, and a fiery passion emerged as he looked at the Magic Protective Shield.
A treasure trove was laid before him to plunder, yet it was surrounded by danger.
With a single misstep, he could be devoured by the Death Storm…
It all depended on whether he could be careful and cautious enough to extract the wealth from it!
He couldn’t let greed cloud his judgment and lead to mistakes.
Noland Lee took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and continued modifying Undead Runes with the touchpoint.
One after another, System Messages emerged from the depths of his mind and appeared before him.
With a thought, Noland Lee moved the System interface to the corner of his field of vision, controlling his urge to check it.
There was no need to hurry; the Deconstruction Results would not run away. Only by carefully modifying the Undead Runes could he focus on the most important task at hand.
One, two, three…
In 20 minutes, Noland Lee continuously modified more than 20 Undead Runes.
This was not his limit, but it was the limit of his height and arm span.
In the area near the ground, the number of Undead Runes he could modify was limited.
In the area more than two meters above the ground, there were still many places on the Magic Protective Shield that could be modified.
If Noland Lee wanted to continue further, he would have to find Sergeant Mars and ask for tables, chairs, or a ladder.
But climbing near the Magic Protective Shield was very dangerous.
Death Energy was a type of energy that repelled non-Undead Creatures.
Once the tables and chairs were exposed to Death Energy, they would accelerate in decay and become withered.
Only special alchemical products like the Rune Staff could repeatedly come into contact with Death Energy without transforming.
It was very likely that Noland Lee would lose his balance while standing on decaying wood, bump into the Magic Protective Shield, and be turned into white bones by the Death Energy.
So he wisely chose to stop and turned to leave without greed.
“Chief Officer, I’ve finished modifying the Undead Runes near the ground.”
Noland Lee approached Mars and Sterling, raised his arm, and made a few gestures on the Spirit Pivot:
“There are still some Undead Runes that can be modified in high places, but I can’t reach them. Shall I continue to modify them, or should I stop here?” Sergeant Mars patted Noland Lee’s arm and said with a smile:
“That’s enough, Jarvis! You did a great job!”
“Give me the Rune Staff,” Lieutenant Sterling Parker said as he extended his right hand.
Noland Lee handed it over.
Lieutenant Sterling’s palm was quite large, and the Rune Staff appeared particularly short in his hand.
He first carefully observed the appearance of the staff, and then swung his arm, throwing the Rune Staff toward the Magic Protective Shield.
As the touchpoint of the Rune Staff brushed the Magic Protective Shield, a black whirlwind-like Death Storm instantly descended.
Since there were no people or other objects near the Spirit Pivot, this artificially created Death Storm didn’t cause any harm… Uh, no, it was just the Rune Staff that was damaged.
