    The mutated tentacles instantly straightened as if electrocuted, shivering from the soul-deep cold.


    [System Message:]<div>


    [You have sessfully cast “Soul Freeze” on “Mutated Tentacle”.]


    [The target has entered a Soul Freeze statesting for 2 seconds.]


    Nnd Lee’s sudden casting of a different spell left the mutated tentacles dumbfounded for half a second.


    Immediately after that, those mutated tentacles guarding Nnd in anticipation of the “Psychic Bombardment” baptism started jumping excitedly, rushing to get closer to Nnd’s hand!


    Oh, wow.


    It seemed “Soul Freeze” was indeed more useful than “Psychic Bombardment”.


    But…


    Nnd hesitated for a moment.


    However, “Soul Freeze” had no damage, regardless of how much he froze the soul, it would be incapable of killing the mutated tentacles.


    How could he recover the Soul Strength while also utilizing the Energy Points he’d spent?


    Nnd fell deep in thought.<div>


    His sudden change to “Soul Freeze” had already revealed some information. If the other party calmed down and thought about it carefully, they would undoubtedly uncover the deeper meaning behind the change in spells.


    Taking this factor into ount, Nnd decided to go straight to the point:


    “I’ve studied the deeper meaning behind the Twilight Dream and Dusk Giants, as well as the Undead Cult and today’s Tatis Empire. I know what kind of existence Shubick is. Your attitude towards me and the dark green light dots on these tentacles all prove that you are not Shubick. I have some guesses about your identity.”


    Upon hearing Nnd Lee’s words, the dark green tentacles trembled, appearing to be in an emotionally charged state.


    Theybined together, forming individual Undead Runes.


    Nnd briefly identified the meaning of these Undead Runes.


    “You… appeared… in my… dream”


    “I… remember… your soul”


    “Pure… perfect…”


    “We… cooperate…”


    “You… cast spells…”<div>


    “I teach you… Dusk… Soul-casting Technique… a portion.”


    Nnd raised his eyebrows:


    “Alright, deal. Howe you know the Undead Runes? What’s your rtionship with the Undead Cult?”


    The mutated tentacles quickly formed characters:


    “This matter…plicated…”


    “Time is urgent…”


    As soon as these words were spoken, without waiting for Nnd to say anything, the mutated tentacles made another move.


    One of them exploded with a loud bang.


    Countless tiny debris particles scattered, while a grain-sized luminous object remained in ce, emitting a twilight glow.


    The grain-sized light flew in front of Nnd and stopped, the other mutated tentacles forming Undead Runes indicating “please ept”.


    Nnd understood the other party’s intention; they were afraid that he might change his mind, so they decided to pay the reward in advance.<div>


    Nnd cast Deconstruction to examine the light.


    After making sure it wouldn’t cause any negative effects, Nnd grabbed it.


    Warmth spread through his palm, gradually seeping inwards.


    The luminous object, glowing with the light of dusk, vanished within Nnd’s hand.


    A vast scene appeared before Nnd’s eyes.


    At dusk, the crimson setting sun hung low in the sky, suspended above the mountain peaks. Dusk Giants were seated amidst the towering mountains, facing the setting sun, inhaling deeply. Their chests expanded, and their nostrils red fiercely. A ming river flowed from the setting sun into the Dusk Giant’s nostril.


    [System Message:]


    [You sense the aura of “Dusk Essence”.]


    [Thepleteness of “Dusk Giant Soul-casting Technique· Basic Edition” has risen from 12.5% to 30%.]


    [New content rted to “Dusk Breathing Technique” has been added, which can be learned quickly through Deconstruction.]


    Nnd scanned the text in his mind, not in a hurry to check the newly gained “Dusk Breathing Technique”.


    He steadied his mind, reached out to grab a mutated tentacle, and cast “Soul Freeze” vigorously.


    Compared to working before crossing with the promise of ater paycheck, unnecessary bonus deductions, and unpaid overtime, the Dusk Giant’s behavior of pre-paying a deposit was just too sincere.


    Nnd had to properly freeze their souls.


    After casting dozens of “Soul Freeze” spells in one go, a mutated tentacle self-destructed.


    Inside this tentacle was also a grain-sized luminous object.


    After the explosion, the debris of the tentacle’s corpse didn’t scatter all around. Instead, they hovered and circled the light, forming a new mutated tentacle within ten seconds.


    Nnd cast Deconstruction on the newly arrived mutated tentacle, refreshing its panel information.


    With a simple nce at the “Soul Attack Resistance” on the panel, Nnd knew what had just happened.


    That tentacle, by means of voluntary self-destruction, had transferred the soul attack it had suffered to the mutated tentacle overlord.


    In this way, the mutated tentacle overlord’s soul attack resistance would increase.


    The newly summoned tentacle from the mutated tentacle overlord would inherit its resistance.


    That was the reason why the new tentacle’s “Soul Attack Resistance” rose from 0. to 0.0.


    Nnd read another meaning from this action.


    The mutated tentacle overlord controlled by the Dusk Giant seemed to be facing the noise attacks of the Tribal Leader of Shubick Descendants, otherwise, it wouldn’t be so eager to increase its soul attack resistance.


    However, this 3 millionths of a percent increase in soul attack resistance seemed too small and insignificant.


    Could the Dusk Giant’s mutated tentacle overlord handle the Tribal Leader of Shubick Descendants?


    While casting “Soul Freeze”, Nnd asked:


    “Are you fighting the Tribal Leader of Shubick Descendants? Is the battlefield at the ceremony site? How are the battle conditions?”
