The shambling demon that uttered cruel words did not attack directly. The first ones to rush over were the sub-demons that had been separated from it and had just gained a physical form.

There were seven sub-demons in total, with nascent ichor still flowing on their bodies. Two of them were chanting spells on the spot, and the other five were lying on the ground, rushing toward Zhou Mu ferociously like hounds.

So the first one to test…

The withering cold in his hand tapped on the ground, and a ring of pure fire spread rapidly from the location of the knock, swallowing up the five sub-demon that rushed over in the blink of an eye.

【Purifying Ring of Fire】

The hot wind blew through his hair, and all five sub-demons were burned to char. Zhou Mu silently calculated the difference between reality and the game in his heart.

[Purifying Ring of Fire] is an apprentice-level spell, which is described as "releasing a clean ring of flames to burn evil". In fact, the damage is very slight, but because it has the effect of removing frost and curse states, it is often used in the game.

Use it as a purification.

The newly born sub-demon is around level 25, and the spellcasting agent he uses is the Withering Cold. As an artifact-level staff with ice attributes, there will be a penalty of 50% reduction in power when using fire attribute spells.

As a result, if it were in the game, [Purifying Fire Ring] would not be able to kill five sub-demon instantly like just now.

"So the actual performance of the spell is closer to the background description of the skill than the mathematical changes based on game values?"

Zhou Mu thought as he watched the Yamo that was turning into black salt crystals and dissipating.

It was also at this time that the two surviving sub-demons had finished chanting their spells, and two football-sized fireballs roared toward him with tail flames.

"Bang!"

"hiss……"

A beam of light in the shape of a spear intercepted one of the fireballs, and the latter exploded in mid-air like a firework. After detonating the fireball, the light gun hit a magic-casting sub-demon without slowing down, creating a silent and dazzling blast.

After the light flashed, all that was left of the sub-demon was ashes on the ground.

When the other fireball flew about two meters away from Zhou Mu, it was engulfed by a sudden burst of cold air, and was extinguished as quietly as a cigarette butt thrown into an icy lake.

[Holy Throwing Spear], [Frozen Wasteland]

"Well, spells with trajectory and collision volume can be intercepted, whether by detonating them in advance or using a halo effect to offset them. This is different from the game."

Different, but more intuitive.

Seeing that the fireball he threw was extinguished as soon as he got close, the last remaining sub-demon on the field was stunned for a moment. Before it could chant magic again, a sharp ice pick sank into its throat.

"What? Aren't you coming?"

Seeing the shambling demon and the gray-robed mage standing there motionless, Zhou Mu asked as he walked over.

At this moment, with him as the center, a range of twenty meters was shrouded in a frost storm. The ground was constantly covered with frost, and the air was filled with flying ice shards.

David looked at the man and asked the white ringworm in his mind that was connected to his soul.

"How about it? To be able to use [Frozen Wasteland], at least the frost spell has reached the sixth level. Are you sure you can win him?"

"No problem, you will support me from behind. The damage from [Frozen Wasteland]'s spell can actually better inspire Lady Hungry's blessing for me."

After saying that, it moved its fat body and rushed towards Zhou Mu, the rusty knife in its hand glowing green.

Looking at the staggering demon rushing towards him like a dump truck, Zhou Mu compared it in his mind with the game.

The shambling demon's movements are much faster than the slow movement module in the game, but...

Zhou Muchao turned sideways and dodged the opponent's head-on collision.

His reflexes and speed are not at the same level as his own in reality.

After all, game players are normal human beings, and it is impossible for game developers to really let them operate a character whose numerical values ​​are far superior to those of ordinary people. For the sake of gameplay, some attributes can only be reflected in data, and in terms of expressiveness, some attributes can only be reflected in data.

compromise.

For example, agility will only increase things like critical strikes and dodge, but will not make the player's reaction speed really faster.

But when the game becomes a reality, these data will be truly reflected in one's physical fitness, but on the other hand, whether it is a critical hit or dodge, you have to rely on yourself to operate it.

It is impossible to have the situation in the game where someone shoots you in the head and misses because your dodge is high enough.

So the next test.

The staggering demon stopped in his tracks, turned around, swung the knife with his backhand and struck Zhou Mu in the head.

"Click! Cack, cluck, cluck..."

This seemingly powerful and heavy sword was blocked by Zhou Mu's raised arm armor. The sound the swords and armor made when they clashed was not the clanging sound of gold and iron, but more like a blunt knife striking the frozen lake.

The sound of breaking.

Bai Zhen, who felt as if he had chopped something into pieces, smiled ferociously and was about to say something, but after seeing the situation clearly, he uttered words that could be ranked in the top three of the classic cameo lines.

"Wha...what?"

The spot where it had just hit was covered with a layer of frost flashing with white runes, and the rusty knife was stuck on that layer of frost, unable to move forward.

【White frost】

Master-level frost defensive magic lasts for three minutes after use. It adds a layer of blocking state to the caster every 15 seconds. Each layer can reduce the damage of the next physical attack by 75%.

The staggering demon's own attack power was not high, and it was weakened by the defense of [white frost] and armor. This seemingly terrifying blow hit Zhou Mu without even causing him to feel a single tremor.

"Then there is no problem in terms of physical defense. Attacks of this level will not cause control effects such as deceleration and stun."

He made a mental note of the test results.

"Whoosh!"

A jet-black energy arrow broke through the frost storm surrounding Zhou Mu and hit his left shoulder. Violent shadow energy exploded on the shoulder armor.

David stared at Zhou Mu nervously with a lead-colored staff in hand, waiting for the opponent to fall straight down under the influence of the curse after being hit by a [Shadow Arrow].

But the other party just turned his head and looked at him lightly, then waved away Bai Zhen's blade and touched the spot where he had just been hit.

"[Shadow Arrow], an expert-level shadow spell. When there is no corresponding countermeasure, it will indeed break the defense and cause some slight damage."

Zhou Mu recalled the feeling when he was just shot by the [Shadow Arrow].

It was probably the impact of being hit by a pebble thrown by a naughty child, and the stinging sensation that was difficult to detect unless you felt it carefully.

Although there is no health tank anymore, the hit just now probably deducted some health points.

Well, if it's in a game, it's probably around single digits.

David looked at the man with a horrified look. If he just made him feel uneasy by killing all seven sub-demons at once, then what was happening now was completely beyond his cognition.

Why was he able to stand there as if nothing was wrong after being stabbed by Bai Zhen and receiving a [Shadow Arrow] in the face?

What level is the other party at? Master level? Or is it in the legendary realm?

When David realized that the other person was staring at him, he had the urge to run away immediately.

"Thank you, I already know the results of the spell defense test."

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to myself.

What's the meaning?

"Then it's time to test the spell damage. In order not to affect you..."

Before David could figure out what the man's words meant, a black shadow flashed across the other's staff, and then he stopped thinking.

【Shadow Cage】

A whirling illusory ring blade passed through David's body and trapped him in the center of the ring blade. Immediately, darkness as deep as ink burst out from the ring blade, wrapping his whole body into a chilling ball.
