Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge - Chapter 115

Chapter 115: Chapter 115: Essence of Blood Lake, Martial

Trial Ends

The martial examination replica, central region, a certain underground chamber.

In a space suffused with blood-red, there stood an altar half the height of a man.

At this moment, floating above the altar was a blood pearl the size of a palm, emitting an enticing and fragrant aroma.

“What is this?”

Flooded with an intense craving and greed from within, a voice at the bottom of his heart was tempting him, urging him to rush to the altar, seize the blood pearl, and swallow it in one gulp.

His greed was magnified to the extreme, and Zi Liyuan almost lost control of himself.

However, fortunately, the Nether Crystal Core in his spatial backpack unleashed a deep gray Power of Death at the critical moment, which forcefully cleansed his limbs and pores, causing his body to temporarily fall into a stalemate.

Moreover, a force of pure Power of Death swept across the entire space.

The blood-red space turned dull and grayish in the next moment, the tempting fragrant aroma disappearing without a trace, and the mind-bewitching entity was completely scattered by the Power of Death.

“The Power of Death activating automatically to protect the body is somewhat indiscriminate.”

Moving his limbs slowly, breaking the stalemate of his body bit by bit, Zi Liyuan was somewhat speechless.

Fortunately, the greed within him was cleansed away as well, and he returned to his normal state.

“What exactly is this blood pearl? It radiated such temptation that I almost succumbed to it.”

His Spirit swept over the area, both the Eye of Death and the Eye of Shadow investigated, but they couldn’t make out the truth of the blood pearl, only knowing it contained an extraordinary vitality within it.

Shaking his head, with the Nether Crystal Core as his protector, Zi Liyuan wasn’t afraid of the blood pearl causing any more trouble, so he, along with Lao Tie, slowly approached the altar.

However, he didn’t rashly touch the object. Instead, he circled the altar, observing the situation, before finally stepping onto the half-man-high altar and coming face to face with the blood pearl.

Blood Lake Essence (Purple): An essence formed by the vitality condensed within the Blood Lake, containing huge life energy, while mixed with the Power of the Malevolent Spirits from the Blood Lake. It is a greatly nourishing item for certain Undead beings.

A Purple Epic item, yet the details only explained its origins, its specific functions required him to explore on his own.

Regardless of what this thing was, judging by its quality, it was a treasure. Taking out a jar, Zi Liyuan placed the blood pearl inside, tossed it into his spatial backpack, and then started searching the chamber once again with increased diligence.

Unfortunately, aside from the blood pearl on the altar, there was nothing else of value here.

Just as he was about to continue his search outside to see if there were any remaining treasures, a system notification sound rang in his ears once more.

[Ding, the martial examination replica has been purified, abnormality found in replica rules, the high school exams are ending early!]

[Ding, tallying the scores of all examinees…]

[Ding, examinee Zi Liyuan, total score of 1,327,991, ranked first in the martial examination replica!]

[Ding, examinee Zi Liyuan, congratulations on becoming the valedictorian of the national high school exams! Valedictorian of the Jiangnan Continent high school exams!)

[Ding, closing the martial examination replica, countdown 10 seconds…]

A series of system sounds ensued, and by the time Zi Liyuan could react, his figure once again appeared in the White Crane Academy’s altar square. ’ The originally tranquil square plunged into a buzzing hubbub the next moment. Countless examinees showed various expressions; some wore a look of horror some were extremely frustrated, some cheered in celebration, while on some ’ people’s heads, a floating blood-red mark appeared!

Just then, a massive oppressive force was released from above, causing all the candidates present to freeze in their tracks.

Those who had not reached First Order were directly pressed to the ground by this terrifying pressure, their faces filled with panic and uncertainty.

The First Order candidates also suffered immensely, but they barely managed to stabilize their forms, preventing themselves from falling flat. However, cold sweat had already soaked their backs as they struggled to maintain their ’ posture.

Zi Liyuan, being of Second Order, felt the pressure most acutely. The vast spiritual pressure wasn’t only bearing down on his body but also on his Spirit, continually trying to make him submit.

Fortunately, he had reaped substantial benefits from the martial trial instance, and his strength had increased several folds thanks to a complete set of gear changes, which allowed him to withstand the oppressive force, uncomfortable as it was, without submitting.

“Those with a blood mark appearing above their heads, take them all away for examination!”

“Yes!”

Countless figures flew in from all around, landing in the altar square, and shackled all the candidates with blood marks above their heads with restraining handcuffs.

This operation, naturally, caused an uproar among all the candidates, but as they were all subdued by the pressure, no one could resist, and they could only watch helplessly as the city guard troops came in and took people away.

After hundreds of candidates were taken away by the city guard troops, the massive pressure finally dissipated.

The White Crane Academy Dean slowly descended from the sky, landing atop the altar.

“Classmates, congratulations on completing your college entrance examination and successfully graduating.

I believe you have experienced an unforgettable and arduous cultivation during the martial trial instance.

Go back and rest well, the day after tomorrow in the morning return to your respective schools, and prepare to fill in your desired university choices.

To the candidates who have achieved good rankings and wish to participate in the Nine Great Divine States Academy’s assessment, please proceed to your desired academy for the assessment on your own.

Vocational candidates, please return to the White Crane Academy’s square altar tomorrow morning to take your vocational graduation exams.

The national college entrance examination rankings, as well as the Jiangnan Continent college entrance examination rankings, will be broadcast continuously on television at seven o’clock tonight.

Let’s congratulate these candidates on their excellent results!

Now, you’re dismissed!”

He Bai’s voice boomed, covering the vast altar square, and the words reached the ears of all the students present.

With the word “dismissed,” all the candidates began to slowly disperse in groups.

“How did you do? Which position did you get?”

Zi Liyuan asked Shen Yurou beside him with a smile on his face.

“Without speaking, nobody will take you for a mute.”

Shen Yurou was not satisfied with her results. If it wasn’t for Zi Liyuan’s help during the college entrance examination, she feared she would have been eliminated early on.

Even having persisted to the end, she was equally dissatisfied with her performance in the national ranking.

Because in the final battlefield, her role could be said to be negligible, having almost no effect on the overall situation.

She felt the gap between herself and Zi Liyuan was growing wider and wider, and to keep up with his pace, she needed to become stronger!

Nevertheless, she still shared her results information with Zi Liyuan. [Ding, candidate Shen Yurou, has scored a total of 377033 points, ranking 32nd in the martial trial instance!]

[Ding, candidate Shen Yurou, congratulations on ranking 32nd in the national college entrance examination! Silver medalist of the Jiangnan Continent exam!]
