“Clang, clang, clang…”

The Dark Wrathful Spirits in the staircase were crashing against the stairwell's sluice gate.

These Dark Wrathful Spirits might not be highly intelligent, and their behavior seemed relatively simple.

Instead of using self-destruction to forcefully destroy the gate, they were merely using brute force to ram the door, trying to forcibly open it.

Noland Lee leaned against the door panel with his body, managed to put down the door latch, and temporarily blocked the Dark Wrathful Spirits in the staircase.

Just as Noland mentally prepared himself to go on a killing spree, a strange scene occurred with the Dark Wrathful Spirits inside the Medical Department.

In the dark water flooding the corridor, there were about seventeen or eighteen Dark Wrathful Spirits.

Upon seeing Noland, a living human, they exhibited two entirely different reactions.

The three Dark Wrathful Spirits closer to Noland charged at him without hesitation, intending to perish together with him.

However, the dozen or so Dark Wrathful Spirits further away from Noland uniformly turned their heads as if they hadn't seen him at all, and moved towards the rooms deeper inside the Medical Department without looking back.

Noland was slightly surprised by this situation, but he didn't dare to let his guard down.

He glanced back at the Dark Wrathful Spirits banging against the door panel, trying to enter the Medical Department from the staircase, and couldn't help but ponder.

“Why do I feel like these Dark Wrathful Spirits are coming for something specific in the Medical Department?”

Noland shook his head, temporarily dismissing the random thoughts.

He faced the three Dark Wrathful Spirits that were heading straight for him, and calmed his mind as he drew the Magic Array Blueprint.

Once the spell blueprint had been completely deconstructed, casting spells became as simple as drinking water for him. Each stroke and line on the blueprint seemed ingrained in his very bones, as if they were instincts.

It took him just a second to draw three Magic Array Blueprints.

He pointed his fingertip towards the first two Dark Wrathful Spirits, casually threw two “Fear Spells” at them, and frightened them away. Then, he swiftly changed the direction of his fingertip and sent a “Cripple Spell” towards the third Dark Wrathful Spirit.

Although continuously using “Fear Spells” to delay enemies wasn't a long-term solution.

It was crucial to find a way to kill the Dark Wrathful Spirits as soon as possible.

Noland purposely left a crippled Dark Wrathful Spirit, wanting to test how to kill such undead creatures.

He was not without ideas.

The Undead Troops Basic Encyclopedia introduced the basic information about Dark Wrathful Spirits, but it didn't mention how to summon them.

However, the knowledge from the book was enough.

The basic information of the Dark Wrathful Spirit included three apparent weaknesses.

Manual detonation.

The Dark Wrathful Spirit's attack method was self-destruction.

Inside its body, there was an energy node that could explode upon contact. By using bullets, knife points, or blunt weapons to hit this energy node, one could detonate the Dark Wrathful Spirit prematurely.

Weak electricity.

Strong current could destroy the Dark Wrathful Spirit directly.

Healing prohibition.

The Dark Wrathful Spirit's “Construct Value” would always be declining, so it needed to constantly touch the rainwater filled with Death Energy and Yin Ash to maintain its body's integrity. Isolating it from the rainwater would trigger its self-destruction.

At the moment, Noland couldn't find a safe and controllable power source, nor could he build a water barrier, so he only had the option of manually detonating the Dark Wrathful Spirits.

He raised the revolver equipped with a silencer, aimed at the staggering Dark Wrathful Spirit.

Upon casting the “Cripple Spell,” transparent magic chains appeared on the legs of the Dark Wrathful Spirit, obstructing its movement.

The speed of the Dark Wrathful Spirit was reduced drastically, and it could only slowly approach Noland.

Theoretically speaking, Noland had ample time to shoot bullets, gradually probing the location of the self-destructive energy node.

However, considering the unpredictability of the battlefield, Noland didn't hesitate to consume capacity and immediately used Deconstruction. System Message: You are attempting to deconstruct “Dark Wrathful Spirit.”

Since you have already mastered the basic information of such undead creatures, the necessary Energy Points for deconstruction are reduced by 8.

It is estimated that it would consume 12 Energy Points to reach a 100% degree of deconstruction.

Do you confirm the deconstruction?

“Not bad, the Undead Troops Basic Encyclopedia is like a general-use discount coupon. As long as the undead troops appear in this book, I can deconstruct them all at a discounted price.”

Noland nodded slightly, delighted in his heart, before promptly muttering,

“Confirm deconstruction.”

After a brief moment of trance, a large chunk of system text appeared in his mind.

Noland quickly read through it, squinting his eyes.

He aimed at the approaching Dark Wrathful Spirit, targeted its neck, chest, and abdomen, and fired three bullets consecutively, emptying the bullet chamber. The first two bullets splashed water on the Dark Wrathful Spirit with little effect.

However, with the third bullet, the Dark Wrathful Spirit exploded with a “bang” as soon as it was hit, scattering the black rainwater in all directions.

Noland lifted his hand to block the splashing water droplets and skillfully reloaded the revolver.

The self-destruct energy node's location varied randomly for each Dark Wrathful Spirit. The node would flow quickly within their bodies like water, constantly changing positions.

With good luck, one could hit it with a single shot.

With bad luck, it would be like just now, requiring three shots to hit the node.

“Thank goodness I have a bag full of spare ammunition, or I wouldn't be able to bear such a hassle.”

Once the duration of the “Fear Spell” ended, the two Dark Wrathful Spirits frightened away by Noland charged towards him..
