Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge - Chapter 178
Chapter 178: Chapter 176: The Monster Tide Within the Abyssal Rift_2
In the end, the abyss was their home turf, boosted by the power of its rules.
Even in the face of a fourth-order level 100 demon or devil, Zi Liyuan was unafraid, but he could not guarantee the safety of those around him.
“Rest assured, if any higher beings appear within ten miles of me, I will sense their presence.”
The higher the life form, the stronger its bloodline, and as a bloodline professional, Number Two would feel a crushing pressure from her bloodline as soon as a high-order life form drew near.
“Let’s hope so.”
No sooner had Zi Liyuan’s voice fallen than a streak of blood-red lightning crossed the sky, illuminating the distance with its brief light.
“Crap! A monster tide!”
Although the lightning was fleeting, Zi Liyuan saw the scene in the distance clearly.
A dense swarm of monsters, bloodthirsty and fierce, surged toward them, from both the sky and the ground!
In an instant, Zi Liyuan severed all connections with the ghostly knights, dispersing them back to the Netherworld, then with a wave of his magic wand, he began to summon again.
A huge summoning array appeared in front of him, and a neat line of ghostly skeleton mages emerged.
Zi Liyuan first opened his spatial backpack, then tossed out group after group of monster corpses, which the ghostly skeleton mages lifted with their abilities, turning them into skeleton warriors.
2,000 ghostly skeleton mages immediately formed a troop of 2,000 skeleton warriors, assembled in a circular formation, encircling the four of them in the middle.
After establishing the basic defense to ensure it wouldn’t be broken by the monster tide at first charge, Zi Liyuan began summoning once again.
Lao Tie, the Demon Spider, and the Spider Queen appeared one after another, their tremendous pressure spreading, causing all nearby creatures to quiver in spirit as if a giant stone weighed upon their hearts.
This was a pressure unique to legendary creatures, an innate suppression of lesser bloodlines by higher ones.
The appearance of the Spider Queen, a legendary BOSS template, immediately caused a stir among the newcomers.
Those scions from major families who were ready to trouble Zi Liyuan suddenly became very well-behaved.
To confront him would be like delivering themselves to slaughter, wouldn’t it?
Damn!
Their elders had never mentioned that this freak had both epic BOSS and legendary BOSS summons!
Such strength meant seeking trouble would be insane. They seemed eager to serve themselves up on a plate!
The new recruits who wanted trouble all quieted down, with many now thinking about how to befriend him instead.
After all, a third-order level 80 Necromancer already had two aces in the hole with the epic BOSS and the legendary BOSS. Once he broke through to fourth-order level 100, he would surely be a powerhouse ranked among the top on Blue Star.
To offend such an entity would bear bitter fruit; all were geniuses who understood very well the gravity of their choices.
At this moment, Li Fengwen’s face was twisted with rage, wishing he could snatch the Spider Queen for himself.
He had wanted to use the Spider Queen’s body to help awaken the ancient divine beast bloodline in his panda Tuanzi, but Zi Liyuan had intercepted the body first.
This delayed his plan indefinitely; after all, getting hold of a legendary BOSS corpse on Blue Star was truly a remote hope.
Perhaps his panda Tuanzi’s activation of the ancient divine beast bloodline would have to wait until he entered the Sea of Realms.
“His strength has increased terrifyingly. With an epic BOSS, a legendary BOSS, and a topleveled hero BOSS puppet to his name, he just needs to step into the fourth order and then he can run amok on Blue Star.”
Ying Xueji couldn’t help but express her sentiments.
She still remembered the mock battle trial where a single mutated hell demon puppet had the audacity to confront the four of them, forcing them to sign a pact of capitulation.
And now, with two more top-notch combatants to his name, especially the legendary BOSS Spider Queen, he could genuinely claim to be invincible among his peers.
“His personal strength has also greatly increased. Just that one Bone Spear alone is terribly powerful, breaking the Holy Shield of a level 45 Holy Knight with a single strike. At that level, a Holy Knight’s shield has a maximum of 5,000,000, and considering attribute incompatibility, the Bone Spear needs to deal 10,000,000 damage to break through.”
Zhu Wu looked at Zi Liyuan with a fervent gaze, one that reflected a burning desire for combat.
But he forcibly suppressed his emotions. At the moment, even if he used some of his trump cards, he wasn’t sure he could face the three summoned creatures of Zi Liyuan simultaneously.
“Don’t forget, Zi Liyuan’s strongest single-target spell isn’t Bone Spear, but a mutated skill that can fire twice in a row!”
Liu Shengnan’s eyes, filled with fervor as she looked at Zi Liyuan, also wanted to join the fight. But after calculating the strengths of both sides, she had to extinguish the desire in her heart.
Without using her trump cards, she was completely outmatched; even with them, at best it would be a thirty to seventy split, her chance of winning being three, Zi Liyuan’s seven. Therefore, it was meaningless.
“How about it, Little Li, do you want to provoke him now?”
Liu Shengnan suggested with ill intent.
“Do you think I’m an idiot?”
Li Fengwen asked with an annoyed roll of his eyes.
“Yes!” “Exactly like one!” “You always were!”
Three voices chimed in unison, leaving someone red-faced and angrily snorting, refusing to talk with these so-called friends.
He had no choice but to grab his panda mascot, Tuanzi, from behind his neck and began to vigorously rub it in his embrace.
“Protest! Protest against mistreating me!”
“If you were slightly more competent, would we even see the Spider Queen here?”
Full of resentment, he turned the panda mascot into a ball shape with his rubbing.
“I really should never trust humans. Why couldn’t I resist my cravings back then and chose such an incompetent person for a pet contract? I want to break the contract and go join Zi Liyuan!”
The panda mascot, Tuanzi, kept complaining and expressing regret.
“Only I would want you. Go join him, do you think anyone else would care for your small size? Are you bragging about being able to cause a mess or being cute and cuddly, or thinking someone will feed you milk by the bowlful?”
After knocking on his unreliable mascot’s forehead, Li Fengwen went back to rubbing and stroking it intensely.
“Stop the chatter and get everyone ready to face the enemy. We are in the Abyss Rift after all, where the monsters are at least Third Order Level 60.”
The average level of the freshmen was around Level 50; facing the demonically transformed monsters of the Abyss could easily lead to total wipeout at first contact.
“Shield Warriors, defensive warriors, heavy cavalry, form a circular defense on the perimeter, ready to take on the monsters!
Thieves, assassins, warriors, and other melee professions, position yourselves in the second row of defense, ready to attack through the gaps in the tanks’ wall!
Hunters, mages, magicians, and other ranged professions, form the third row of defense, and use any wide-area AOE skills you have on the monster crowd!
All healing and supportive professions, stay in the middle, take care of the entire team, especially the tanks in the first row, ensuring their health stays above 60%!
Now, supports, start buffing up the tanks in the first row with various defensive BUFFs!”
Ying Xueji immediately organized the team she brought over.
They didn’t have the one-man army capabilities of Zi Liyuan, but their team was in no way weak, with an average level above Level 55, a cut above the other freshmen.
It was not just strength in levels, but in equipment and power too.
These people were recruited by the four major royal families, and with their resources, naturally armed them to the teeth, each with a set of Level 50 silver hero gear, and even the accessories were Level 40 rare quality.
By the time Ying Xueji and her team had fully organized their formation and buffed up with various enhancements, the other teams had just snapped out of their panic and started to arrange their positioning.
But the elite were indeed elite. The newcomers who could enter Dragon Academy were all geniuses, so in a very short time, they too had formed their formations and buffed up with various enhancements.
Soon, the massive wave of monsters rushed towards them.
The crash, brutal charges. The skeleton warrior army crumbled like paper, scattering into pieces in an instant.
In just one head-on clash, more than a thousand skeleton warriors raised by the Netherworld skeleton mages were shattered to pieces.
