The elementalist represents the extraordinary power of the Principality of Asia, but it is by no means a believing man or good woman.

They are the sharp knives of the nobility and royal power.

Externally, we need to fight against the United Fund and prevent these uneducated creatures from going south.

Internally, various extraordinary events under the Blackstone Federation need to be resolved, and so on.

If it hadn't been for the unexpected sudden death of the mission leader today, and they hadn't found any useful information, who would have braved the wind and sand to come to a remote place like Xiyuan Town to investigate.

It’s not just so that I can have something “meaningful” when I go back to report on my work.

Otherwise, a graduate from the dignified Ellemont College would not even be able to keep his command, and the investigation would yield nothing. What would the count think?

Are these elementalists that I hired with my own money pure waste?

The words of the light elementalist hit the militia captain's weakness.

Unexpectedly, the other party already knew where the residents were hiding.

"You are in an official capacity, have you thought about the consequences of doing this?" The militia captain was still making his final struggle.

The light elementalist said seriously: "If the details and situation of the dark creatures cannot be investigated, there will be more sacrifices. These people are the mainstay of the Blackstone Federation, so I might as well reveal a little more. Because of the lack of intelligence, they are already dead.

Dozens of Monroe Guardsmen and a distinguished lieutenant.

These people are the elites of Rostim City and are the personal bodyguards of the Earl. What do you think of the Earl if you continue to die? Let him know that the soldiers and civilians of Xiyuan Town have joined forces to conceal things about the Dark Suture and hinder the investigation.

, what do you think?"

The militia captain gritted his teeth: "This matter is all decided by me alone and has nothing to do with the residents of the town!"

Then he paused: "That day, Sutures and bandits took advantage of the black rain to invade the town. Sutures unleashed fear in the town and dispersed the residents.

Soldiers arrested children and killed residents.

If the disarmed soldiers in the town hadn't come forward to stop the Suture Body, I'm afraid all of us would have died."

Several elements caused a flash of light in the eyes, seeming to capture some important information.

…

Li Ang ran a long distance.

[Speed] brings a lot of improvement, from reaction to agility, as well as explosive power from muscle coordination.

The pieced together and sewn body is like a precise instrument, running according to prescribed gears.

But the continuous outbreak and long journey also brought a huge disadvantage to Li Ang.

That is——

My physical strength decreased rapidly and there were signs of overdraft.

At this speed, it will be no problem to rush over.

But without physical strength, fighting will be a big problem.

Li Ang saw the faint black smoke rising in the direction of Xiyuan Town from a distance.

Although the smoke had already dissipated before it reached the sky, the black smoke that snaked and disappeared like ink droplets into the water was really visible.

Li Ang's mind suddenly flashed back to the burning Xiyuan Town and the massacred town residents during the blood moon and black rain a few days ago.

He gritted his teeth and squeezed out the last bit of energy from his body.

'According to the current situation, even if I can run, my physical strength is at the bottom, and there is no way to fight the elementalist.'

'Given the current situation in Xiyuan Town, the situation is not optimistic when I arrive. I will definitely jump into the battle immediately. Is there any way to directly increase the combat effectiveness?'

Li Ang's brain was working rapidly, and the increase in [Physique] could enhance the recovery speed to a certain extent. But it was daytime and the sun was still scorching at noon, so the recovery effect was partially restrained.

According to Pompeii's first-hand information, the elementalist mobilized and controlled the power of the elements. After being found to have talent, he was sent to Ellemont College for further study at a young age.

In other words...

These elementalists are all thin dogs who are good at long-range combat. Apart from controlling elemental power or mental power, their physical fitness is not even as good as that of ordinary adults.

Now he has advantages in [Speed] and [Strength]. As long as the quality and weight of close combat can be increased, there is a chance to kill a few thin dogs!

'Adding more warrior skills cannot bring about qualitative changes. If you want to enhance your attack methods, you can only...'

Li Ang locked his eyes on the tentacle on his right arm.

Upgrading from lv1 to lv2, the increased spray ability has brought great benefit to him in dealing with soldiers in the research institute.

It can be said that without the spray effect brought by [Tentacle Control], Li Ang would never be able to face thirty soldiers alone in that environment and kill them all.

So what will be the effect of upgrading to level 3?

Li Ang's current free distribution points are still very rich, and the improvement of tentacles is currently the most intuitive way to increase the thickness of the battle, and it is an option that must be upgraded.

Without saying anything else, Li Ang invested 1 free allocation point in the [Tentacle Control] skill.

[Tentacle control lv2 → lv3, consumes 100 proficiency points, do you want to upgrade? Yes/No]

Li Ang chose to upgrade without hesitation.

The upgraded tentacles also began to change.

The tentacles, which were originally pale pink flesh-colored, began to flow with a dark pigment.

This dark color spreads and settles like ink.

Colorful black gradually settles under the suckers and tentacles.

Then, like a diffused halo, it is subdivided into various parts of the tentacles.

Wandering on capillaries and neurons, it is like an intricate road, and it is also like a scattered electric current.

The originally delicate tentacles now became ferocious, filled with capillary-like black, covering the entire tentacles.

[Tentacle control is increased to lv3, and the "nerve paralysis" effect is obtained]

'This is……'

Nerve paralysis effect!

Li Ang felt the numbness coming from the tentacles themselves, which was caused by the proliferation of cells on the surface of the tentacles.

To the naked eye, Leon's tentacles have an extremely fine layer of "spiked horny cells" growing on them. These stinging cells can release neurovenom, causing paralysis in a short period of time.

In other words, as long as Li Ang's tentacles touch the surface of a creature, he can inject nerve-paralyzing venom into the opponent's body through stinging cells, which will then interrupt the opponent's local nerve conduction and produce a paralyzing effect.

Spray affects the enemy's vision from the environment.

Nerve paralysis directly creates a restricting effect on the enemy.

Now that the tentacles have a new "nerve paralysis" effect, Li Ang only feels that he has more means when fighting the elementalists.

Elementalists mostly use their hands to sense condensed elements.

As long as you find a way to get close and use the nerve paralysis effect of the tentacles, you can interrupt the elemental moves that restrict the opponent!

The most important thing is that the nerve paralysis effect is considered passive!

No need to add!

It takes effect when touched!

It can be said that every second of the battle with the elementalist will be thrilling.

Now with the nerve paralysis effect, Li Ang can earn more than just one second!

'In this way, it seems that this battle can be fought!'

Just as Li Ang was immersed in the new abilities brought by the upgrade of the tentacles, Xiyuan Town, hidden behind the distorted space of rising water vapor in the distance, became increasingly clear...
