Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge - Chapter 153
Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Crafting the Zombie BOSS
“Is this the strength of the national academic champion?”
Wang Tie was struck again, but he quickly recovered and approached Zi Liyuan for advice.
“Brother Zi, your Necromancer is too ruthless, starting with a group attack. With thousands of Elite Skeletons, can your Spirit handle it?”
Contracting beasts occupies Soul Value. A normal template beast takes up 1 point, and the higher the quality, the more Soul Value it occupies.
Currently, Wang Tie is only Level 35. His old man got him a Level 20 silver hero equipment, bringing his Soul Value up to 162 points.
However, after contracting nine rare template beasts, one rare BOSS template beast, and two hero BOSS template beasts, he had used up a total of 108 Soul Value points.
“My Soul Value has now broken through 1600 points, and Elite Skeletons occupy the same amount of Soul Value as ordinary Skeletons, which is 1 point each.”
“Damn, Skeleton abilities mutated? You’re way too awesome, a one-man army with an Elite Skeleton Army, way better than those ordinary death class practitioners outside.”
Wang Tie was filled with envy. The difficulty of skill mutation was unknown, but he hadn’t expected Brother Zi to have mutated the summoning of Skeletons.
Others led a group of ordinary Skeletons, only to use them as cannon fodder, while Brother Zi could walk around with Elite Skeletons. Thinking of the huge gap, it was like the difference between the clouds and the mud.
“Stop being surprised, let’s talk about your issue. Your coordination between beasts is too monotonous, and your tactics are very rudimentary. Plus, I’ve noticed that from beginning to end, you didn’t move at all. Aren’t you afraid that the enemy will get past your beasts and take you down directly?”
The tactics were rudimentary, the team composition was unreasonable, and there was also a big gap in strength between his beasts.
After using the Shield Combat Skeleton Warrior for experiments, Zi Liyuan discovered that out of Wang Tie’s twelve beasts, except for two hero Demon Wolves, including that rare BOSS template gorilla, the damage was not very high.
With such strength, passing the Dragon Academy’s assessment would be as difficult as climbing to the heavens.
Without external assistance, this chubby kid shouldn’t even think about passing the assessment.
“You go level up first. Get to Level 40 in the next few days, and don’t do the Second Order transfer quest yet. I have plans for you.”
While speaking, Zi Liyuan took out various testing instruments and measured Wang Tie’s body dimensions.
If he wanted this guy to succeed in entering Dragon Academy, he would need Shen Yurou’s help.
An exoskeleton sniper Mecha, worth owning. But some modifications were needed, such as increasing the running speed.
After sending Wang Tie away, Zi Liyuan re-entered the “Rampage of Exotic Beasts” instance.
The Skeleton Army, Lao Tie, and the Demon Spider were all summoned in one go, and then he pulled out a bottle of “Zombie Virus Potion (Blue)”
“Zombie Virus Potion (Blue)”: This is a type of infection virus that only affects corpses. It can cause corpse transformation, turning them into Second Order Undead soldiers—Zombies. (Note: The virus infection is strong, and the transformed Zombies will also become sources of infection!)
He casually opened the potion and dropped a droplet onto the body of a rare beast.
The beast, which had already become a corpse, stirred again after 3 seconds.
First its limbs started moving slowly, then its head lifted bit by bit from the ground, followed by its body rising stiffly and slowly to its feet.
“Hiss~”
A hoarse roar echoed from the body that had once again risen.
The corpse that had looked fresh just moments ago had become decayed and putrid, as if it had experienced over a month of fermentation and rot. Not only did a foul stench emanate from it, one could even see worms wriggling within the rotting flesh.
“Damn it, no wonder zombies are disliked. With such an appearance, even the most twisted of death-oriented professionals would definitely not want to see this every day.”
The risen zombie, aside from emitting a deep roar, made no other movements but swayed from side to side, its dull greenish eyes revealing a greedy craving for flesh and blood.
“An LV80 rare monster turns into an LV60 zombie, the template directly downgraded to a green elite. I wonder if infecting a boss’s corpse could possibly result in a boss zombie.”
Stroking his chin, Zi Liyuan decided to act and opened his Spatial Backpack, selecting from the stored corpse materials inside.
Then, he casually threw out the corpse of an LV60 hero boarman boss.
His powerful Spirit invaded the brain of the zombie, imprinted it with his own enslavement mark, and this freshly risen zombie became his possession.
He then controlled the zombie to walk slowly to the side of the boarman boss’s corpse and reached out with a decaying arm, touching the chest of the body.
After the same 3 seconds, the boarman lying on the ground began to change gradually.
The flesh, which had been moderately fresh, visibly decayed and disintegrated, a foul stench emanating from the corpse little by little, and then the boarman slowly but resolutely stood up.
“Still an LV60, but the template has regressed to the quality of a green elite, though it’s still a boss template.”
The Spirit infiltrated, imprinted the enslavement mark on the boarman boss’s Soul, and then Zi Liyuan began examining the specific attributes of this boss zombie.
The boss template’s enhancement granted a 200% increase in all attributes for elite bosses, and unique to the zombies were two innate talents.
The first was the infectious virus that could infect any corpse into a new zombie.
The second was an increase in health, with an overall health increase of 100%, and the absence of pain and morale. However, the corresponding side effect was a 40% reduction in movement speed.
Once again, Zi Liyuan pulled a potion out of his Spatial Backpack—[Zombie Mutation Potion (Blue)]
[Zombie Mutation Potion (Blue): Enhances the strength of zombies. All attributes +20%, with a 1% chance of causing template mutation and advancement. (Note: Each zombie can only use one bottle, with the highest advancement being the rare template.)]
He opened the bottle and poured it directly onto the boarman boss zombie.
The potion acted like sulfuric acid, causing thick smoke to rise when it touched the zombie’s skin, and the stench of the rotting corpse became so overwhelming it almost carried Zi Liyuan away.
“Damn, is this a poison gas bomb or an evolution potion?”
Fighting back his nausea, Zi Liyuan retreated ten meters away, then with his Spirit coupled with the Eyes of Death, he watched the boarman zombie boss intently.
Amidst the thick smoke, the zombie underwent very strange changes.
It grew taller and its muscles were no longer rotting but transformed into tight, hard clumps. The originally murky eyes turned into a bloodthirsty red, exuding brutal ferocity.
At the same time, Zi Liyuan noticed that the boarman zombie boss’s template had evolved from a green elite boss template to a blue rare boss template.
“It’s indeed possible, so the value of this kind of potion is really high!”
