Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge - Chapter 157:

Chapter 157: Chapter 157: Third Order Advancement Quest!

Zi Liyuan and Shen Yurou were both completely oblivious to the arrangements being made above them.

At this moment, one was in the “Beast Tide” instance, gaining experience while conducting all sorts of experiments, and leveling up with an army of Zombie Bosses.

The experience required for these Zombie Bosses, which were branded with the mark of enslavement, to level up was the same as that for normal monsters, so their advancement wasn’t slow.

After all, they had entered an LV80 instance, and even the minor monsters were LV80 rare creatures with no shortage of experience points.

Therefore, after grinding the instance for six hours, the levels of these Zombie Bosses had generally increased by 9~11 levels, bringing their average level to LV50.

Once the instance was over, Zi Liyuan decided to use the experience from his own experience pool to boost the levels of these hundred rare Zombie Bosses all the way to LV60.

But when he saw the amount of experience required, he was completely dumbfounded.

To raise a Zombie Boss from LV50 to LV60, for a 10-level increase, the required experience was a staggering 82.5 million!

This was equivalent to half the experience a professional would need from LV50 to LV60 and raising 98 Zombie Bosses to that level needed a total of 80.85 billion experience points.

He was banging his head against a wall trying to level them up!

Days of grinding instances to the point of nausea had netted him less than 20 billion experience points, still not enough for the calamity these hundred Zombie Bosses represented!

So, it was impossible to continue expanding the Zombie Boss army!

shit, their strength was just passable at best. The only commendable things were their “Corpse Poison” and “Infection” skills, along with the BOSS’s ability to control regular Zombies.

Their strength couldn’t satisfy him, and since Fan Yuer and her sisters couldn’t mass-produce the Zombie strengthening potion, with the limited supply, the plan to build a Zombie Boss army had to be postponed indefinitely.

…

Elsewhere.

Shen Yurou, accompanied by Fan Yuer and her four sisters, chose a tower-defense-type LV40 Heroic instance.

With four monster-spawning points, each of the Fan sisters defended one, while Shen Yurou coordinated from the center, and provided timely assistance with ammunition replenishment.

With two Type II robots and one Type I mechanical platform per person, their defense was impenetrable.

No matter how the monsters charged, under the relentless firepower of the Type II robots and Type I mechanical platforms, all were decimated, riddled with so many holes that if they drank water, it would surely leak out.

As for the BOSSes, they were all sent to heaven by the new type of bombs Shen Yurou had planted, blasted into bits and pieces, with blood and guts flying everywhere and bones scattering all over the place.

The scene was gory and violent, but to these five iron-blooded sisters, it felt like nothing special.

Shen Yurou was completely desensitized by someone’s trickery, now accustomed to these restricted-level scenes as if she saw them every day.

As for Fan Yuer and her sisters, would a normal person research death-related potions, casually drag monster corpses onto the lab table, or use tools to dismember and shatter the corpses? Absolutely not!

Such a bloody and gory scene was nothing but a splash of water to them, not even worth a second glance.

As the battle progressed, echoes of the sisters’ inner voices grew louder, boasting to each other about how fast the leveling was, as if riding on an airship — too freaking awesome!

So, their gaze upon Shen Yurou transformed slowly from a hint of hostility to one of adoring worship.

This girl was too amazing, a true pillar of support. They had to cling to her and never let go!

Shen Yurou looked at the four now-brazen sisters with a loss for words, but she was happy with the ease, even beginning to have different ideas for subsequent leveling.

It seems like leveling up with these four sisters as my henchmen is a pretty good deal. After all, I just need to lie back and pass them the ammo, right?

Isn’t this way of leveling up both easy and enjoyable?

…

Time flowed like a river, and as everyone kept grinding for experience to level up, more than ten days passed.

Zi Liyuan checked the various items he had prepared and then headed to the copy of the home where Uncle Wang directly sent him to the official internal staff room designated for Third Order job-change tasks.

Normally, a Third Order hero advancement task would consume 100 million Dragon Coins and 10 bottles of LV60 hero-grade monster blood.

However, there was a 20% discount when going through the official internal staff channel.

So, he spent only 80 million Dragon Coins to enter the room for the job-change task.

Inside the job-change room, there was nothing but the floor, where a certain special silver material was used to inscribe dense, circular rune patterns.

Zi Liyuan looked at the rune patterns; besides being more complex and denser than during the Second Order task, there were no other changes.

From his Spatial Backpack, he took out the 10 bottles of LV60 Lord Boss monster blood he had prepared, opened them one by one, and poured them onto the rune patterns.

As the bright red blood stained all the rune patterns, a red vortex suddenly appeared and instantly sucked in Zi Liyuan.

With the blink of an eye, he had already entered the job-change copy space.

It was still a huge platform, but this time, the platform was as large as five football fields, which was who knows how many times larger than during the Second Order task.

In the center of the platform stood a skeleton wearing a crown on its head, wielding a bone staff, and dressed in a pitch-black robe.

[Necromancer (Lord Boss)]

[Level]: LV61

[Attributes]: Magic Damage 8000, Physical Defense 1500, Magic Resistance 2000, Health 1200W, Magic Power 800W.

[Skills]: Skeleton Summoning, Skeleton Domination, Elemental Skeletons, Clay Stone Demon, Stone Demon Domination, Blood Stone Demon, Iron Stone Demon, Flame Stone Demon, Damage Amplification, Dark Vision, Weaken, Attack Rebound, Fear, Confusion, Life Steal, Attraction, Bone Teeth, Bone Spear, Envenomed Dagger, Poison Burst, Corpse Explosion Technique, Bone Shield, Bone Wall, Bone Prison, ???

[Combat Power]: 12000

The attributes weren’t too terrifying, a notable gap compared to Lao Tie, but the skills of this Boss gave Zi Liyuan a real headache.

Besides, unknown skills that couldn’t be detected appeared!

What made Zi Liyuan even more disgruntled was that this Boss’s skill level was as high as LV14, with a skill like Bone Spear capable of dealing a terrifying 400,000 damage, enough to instantly kill him!

Before Zi Liyuan could make a move, the Boss made its move first.

The bone staff in the Boss’s hands was wielded, and the entire ground began to tremble. The next moment, withered arms tore through the ground and slowly squeezed out of the earth bit by bit.

Zi Liyuan watched in silence as one corpse after another crawled up.

Alright, the Necromancer Lord Boss showed him first the Zombie summoning spell, which he hadn’t even learned yet.

And that wasn’t all. Once a swath of Zombies crawled from the earth, a huge summoning array appeared.

Wave after wave of Skeleton Warriors, carrying small bone knives, rushed out in a clatter, their numbers even greater than the horde of Zombies.
