Chapter 153: Statue falling from the sky

【Natural Secret Language】In addition to the high faith bonus, it can greatly enhance the endurance of spells.

Lu Yao installed it for Isabella, and her mana value suddenly reached 2089.

In addition, the 【Spell Conjecture】 was a surprise that Lu Yao hadn’t expected.

……

【Spell Conjecture】(100 mana)

By conjecture and calculation to deduce spells, there is a certain probability of learning new spells from other individuals or phenomena. The higher the level of the spell conjecture, the more difficult it is. The new spells obtained by conjecture will be recorded in the 【Natural Secret Language】, and can record spells (0/9).

……

That’s more like it.

Isabella herself has few spells, and although each one has a huge effect, whether it’s the 【Sword of the Forest】 or the 【Final Prayer】, they are more like auxiliary abilities.

With this spellbook, Isabella has the equivalent of 9 spells. As long as she continues to deduce and learn, she can gain many abilities.

The equipment given by the main god to the divine body must be top-notch.

Lu Yao suddenly frowned.

“A certain probability of learning from other individuals or phenomena…”

Is this the Sharingan of the spellbook form?

Lu Yao immediately asked Isabella, who had the 【Natural Secret Language】.

“Yes, my lord.”

“The 【Spell Conjecture】 is not created out of thin air, but is imitated and learned, calculated and restored into spells. If you can see the casting of other active spells, you can record the conjecture. The more times you see it, the more detailed it is, which is helpful for conjecture and deduction.”

Isabella continued to speak while holding the spellbook: “Just as you said, the spell conjecture is to re-enact and analyze the spells cast by others, thereby turning them into spells that the holder can use.”

Lu Yao thought to himself, I knew it.

Forest witch?

Copycat witch!

He remembered the 【Mysteries of Life】.

Isabella’s 【Mysteries of Life Lv8】 was fixed on her wand, while Sarina’s 【Mysteries of Life Lv25】 was mastered by herself.

Is there a possibility…

Lu Yao clicked on the icon of the tyrant for consultation.

“…”

Sarina was silent for a moment. “Yes, my lord. At the time, Saloli always made me demonstrate the 【Mysteries of Life】 and learn this mysterious spell. Although she is a complete fraud, her talent in spells is very high.”

Case solved.

The forest goddess is not human! Deceiving good sisters, deceiving and taking the blame, and deceiving spells!

Lu Yao also felt a wave of emotion, no wonder Sarina’s resentment is so deep.

“My lord, Saloli also deceived another demigod in the abyss, Winnie, by showing her the 【Mysteries of Life】. Although she is a complete fraud, her talent in spells is very high.”

Sarina continued: “In the abyss, Winnie, I and Saloli acted together. It would be very dangerous and difficult to fight alone there.”

“Winnie and the god of darkness come from the same world, and she is also a subordinate god of the god of darkness, but she was captured by the god of darkness very early on and sealed in a special area on the ninth level.”

“But Winnie has been in a deep sleep for a long time, and only wakes up very rarely. Saloli made Winnie very happy with sweet words, so she received the wand given by Winnie.”

Lu Yao was shocked.

The forest goddess’s deception also has a victim?

It sounds like this Winnie is not simple.

“Winnie was once a titled goddess, with the title of 【Lady of Nature】.”

Speaking of Winnie, Sarina rarely said: “If you are going to conquer the ninth level in the future, please allow me to persuade Winnie. Her abilities are incredible and can provide you with a lot of help.”

Lu Yao silently remembered the name Winnie.

He pondered.

【Lady of Nature】.

【Natural Wand】, 【Natural Secret Language】… these are clearly Winnie’s equipment.

The forest goddess is really good at deceiving women.

But the curse insects on the first level of the abyss have not been resolved, and the ninth level is still a long way off. The focus now is on the development and construction of the pixel world.

Lu Yao shifted his attention back to the world map.

A line of text appeared in the simulator.

【The Silvanus Tree has fallen asleep.】

【The forest longs for revival, please let the forest elemental civilization become active again in this world, and the Silvanus Tree will once again give thanks for the treasures.】

The Golden Plain returned to calm once again.

The forest elemental civilization?

This doesn’t sound like something that can be achieved in the short term.

The Golden Plain follows the steps set by the forest god, gradually allowing forest elemental creatures to emerge in the fragment world through rewards and tasks, all of which are beneficial to Isabella.

Lu Yao didn’t mind.

After all, the forest god has been broken down into Isabella and the White God, and the “Book of Memories” has been burned to ashes by himself.

Now it’s like meat rotting in a pot, it can be eaten sooner or later.

Lu Yao relaxed.

Just then, a red alert that had never appeared before popped up on the game interface.

【Sanilo is under attack.】

Monster siege?

Lu Yao shifted his perspective to the southern end of the western continent.

Outside the ghost city of Sanilo, a large number of cannibal crabs emerged from the sea. They waved their pincers and charged forward towards the city.

Most of the attacking cannibal crabs are between level 2 and level 5, and there are quite a few of them, looking like hundreds.

In the midst of the crab army, Lu Yao also found pixelated figures.

These figures were only wearing loincloths, exposing their dark upper bodies. Each of them held a spear made of fish bones, thin but fierce.Among the leaders were two dwarfs, one an Apostle, the other a Prophet.

Lu Yao tapped on their heads.

…

Above their heads, the display read [In Battle].

On the large map, the crab swarm they led was besieging the city walls.

These few dared to attack the city… Lu Yao suspected they had reinforcements.

He ordered Isabella into battle, called for the Blood Knights from the temple, and with Phileas holding the temple, he finally felt a bit more secure.

Lu Yao clicked to enter the battle interface.

In the battle scene, Apostle Truby, wielding a bone spear, continuously cast spells, causing the Cannibal Crabs to have the symbols [Haste] and [Shield] above their heads.

On the Sanilo side, Commander Alex led the charge. He was defending the city walls with merfolk, sandworms, and ghost citizens.

The Cannibal Crabs, boosted in speed, moved quickly, but they couldn’t climb more than two steps before being poked down by the long spears on the walls. Thus, the crab swarm scratched around at the base of the wall, trying to dig through it first.

On the walls, the merfolk wielded bows and arrows, shooting volleys at the monster horde below.

After being injured repeatedly, the Cannibal Crabs would flee backward, running all the way back to the sea, their will to fight not very firm—a small side effect of wisdom.

Apostle Truby kept shouting, continuously providing magical enhancements.

“For the Light God!”

“Crab swarm! Breach this city of the undead!”

“Eradicate evil, restore order!”

Prophet Fabiani’s bone spear glowed green, and some of the injured Cannibal Crabs slowly healed, their hit points also recovering. After being healed, the Cannibal Crabs regrouped and charged at the city walls again.

However, these spells also caused Truby’s mana to deplete.

Lu Yao suddenly realized.

Is this how Apostles and heroes are supposed to be used?

Attack, defense, morale… these attributes are all group buffs. As long as the Apostle or hero leads troops into battle, it will be reflected in the combat strength.

His own path, ever since summoning Isabella, had been off the beaten track, straying further and further. One could also say that the snowball rolled too fast at the beginning, the individual combat power of the Apostles was too strong, so much so that leading troops into battle was actually a self-weakening and population depletion.

At that moment, a shadow flew in from the west outside the city.

It sped into Sanilo City, hovering in the air, looking down upon the entire city, with the display above its head reading [Unidentified Idol].

Outside the city, an exclamation mark lit up above Truby’s head.

The Apostle immediately shouted, “The great Light God has descended! Ghosts within the city, why not surrender and offer your faith!”

Lu Yao was stunned by this scene.

Is this… the idol joining the battle as a flying unit?

Quite a wild play.

However, the idol hovering in the air seemed to sense something amiss and quickly flew towards the eastern sea, fleeing away.

Outside the city, Apostle Truby’s shouts also came to an abrupt halt.

Lu Yao waited at his leisure, not sparing any miracles.

A massive [Hurricane] enveloped the fleeing idol, causing it to fall from the sky and be swept around in circles on the ground by the hurricane. The idol emitted white light, using faith to resist the damage from the miracle.

Lu Yao opened [Curse of True Sight] and moved it over the idol.

Let’s see what you’re really made of.
