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 replace 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.

Fortunately, it was of excellent quality.

After the Death Storm ended, it clattered to the ground with a crisp sound, completely undamaged.

Corporal Mars was somewhat puzzled: “Chief Officer, what is this?”

Lieutenant Sterling Parker shook his hand:

“It’s nothing, I thought the magic protective shield went on strike…” He looked deeply at Noland Lee:

“You’re quite skilled, and your psychological quality is also very strong. You really didn’t make a single mistake.”

“You flatter me, Chief Officer.” Noland Lee replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Lieutenant Sterling Parker waved his hand and turned to walk towards Captain Murphy’s tent:

“I’m going to talk to the Captain. Oh, right, go call my soldiers in and have them set up the flamethrowers to burn the magic protective shield.”

“Yes, Chief Officer.” Corporal Mars nodded, said a word to Noland Lee, and then ran towards the staircase.

“Jarvis, you just wait outside the Chief Officer’s tent, I’ll be back soon.”

Watching Corporal Mars run away with light steps, Noland Lee secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as his tasks finally came to an end.

He stood by the tent and dragged back the system interface to check the messages.

[Your deconstruction completion of the magic protective shield has increased from 0.8% to 1.3%.]

[Your deconstruction completion of the magic protective shield has increased from 1.3% to 1.8%.]

[Your deconstruction completion of the magic protective shield has increased from 11.3% to 11.8%.]

After each modification of the Undead Runes, the increase in the deconstruction completion was fixed, always at 0.5%.

Correspondingly, the energy points needed for precise deconstruction of “Martyr’s Ten Commandments” were also constantly decreasing, now requiring only 9800 energy points.

The completeness of the spell blueprint for “Soul Shield” has now reached 100%.

Its spell flaw is gone, the duration has increased from 30 seconds to 60 seconds, greatly improving its fault tolerance.

Not only that, but the “Soul Shield” has also been upgraded.

It jumped directly from Level 1 to Level 4, saving Noland Lee the energy points needed to upgrade the skill.

Now, the “Soul Shield” lasts for 60 seconds, and during that time, it can negate up to 4 negative effects and damage affecting the soul.

The above three gains were indeed good, but compared to the final gain, they were truly insignificant!

[System Message: You have changed the condition of the magic protective shield by modifying the Undead Runes.]

[Passive Deconstruction activated!]

[Your deconstruction completion of the “Magic Protective Shield” has increased from 9.8% to 10.3%.]

[Deconstruction completion breaks through the integer barrier of 10%!]

[You have acquired an extra reward:]

[Incomplete “Spell Blueprint: Death Finger”.]

Noland Lee had already lost count of how many times he had acquired new spells.

He was still delighted in his heart, but he soon calmed down, just like a wise sage…

Noland Lee pulled up the spell blueprint and clicked to view it, then the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

“Death Finger” is a higher-level spell than “Death Pulse”.

By simply making a specific gesture, one can instantly unleash a ray of death energy.

But!

It actually requires consuming 100 points of soul strength and 100 points of energy!

Noland Lee couldn’t help but complain bitterly in his heart about the extra reward for breaking through the integer barrier.

“Sin Soldier, go in, your Chief Officer is looking for you.”

Lieutenant Sterling Parker walked out of the tent, awakening the dazed Noland

Lee.

He passed by Noland, heading towards his own troops.

This time, he didn’t glare at Noland anymore.

Noland Lee didn’t bother to pay him any attention, turned around, lifted the tent flap, and walked in..
