Disastrous Necromancer

Chapter 101

After entering Tyrant Desert for the eighth time, Lin Moyu finally encountered the Desert Fruits again.

His calm and collected expression cracked, revealing a hue of joy.

With the Desert Fruits, he can grind two skills and max them out.

If it really is as he thinks it is, then his skills can level up along with his level once they are maxed out.

At this point, there is only 1% EXP left before he can level up. If he waits until he reaches level 22 to grind the skills, he will need to grind another level.

“Desert Fruits!”

“That’s a kind of godly object for grinding skills.”

“Ha-ha, we unexpectedly encountered such treasures.”

Someone laughed loudly and ran toward the Desert Fruits.

A skeleton suddenly appeared in front of him.

Lin Moyu has a serious expression on his face, “We had an agreement. The Desert Fruits belong to me. When I’m done grinding my skills, you can get the fruits that remain.”

They agreed to this before entering the dungeon.

Someone said defiantly, “There are so many Desert Fruits here. Why do you get to keep all of them?”

Lin Moyu looked coldly at him, “One more word, and I’ll kick you out.”

He is the captain and has the right to kick people out of the party.

In here, if they are kicked out of the party, they will automatically leave the dungeon.

At the same time, they will also fail to complete the mission.

The person promptly shut his mouth, not daring to say another word.

However, he still has a defiant look in his eyes.

There are several more individuals with a defiant look in their eyes like him

Lin Moyu doesn’t need to concern himself with what’s going on in their heads. The Skeletal Warriors and Skeletal Mages have already positioned themselves to guard the cacti.

No one can snatch away his Desert Fruits.

Seeing the army of skeletons, these people all shut their mouths.

As for what they will say after leaving the dungeon, Lin Moyu doesn’t care much about it.

“Why is there wind blowing.”

“There’s something wrong with the wind. It’s a bit cold.”

“It’s coming from Lin Moyu’s skill.”

Lin Moyu started using his skill.

Bone Armor appeared on him repeatedly.

Every time it appeared, a cold wind would rise out of thin air.

Many a little makes a mickle. The surrounding temperature started to drop.

At level 1, Bone Armor consumed only 10 points of spirit force.

The skill was ground at a rapid pace.

After reaching level 2, the consumption increased to 20 points.

Lin Moyu ate Desert Fruits and used Bone Armor repeatedly, not concerning himself with the consumption at all.

The Desert Fruits are really amazing.

In fact, they are known as godly object for grinding skills.

But unfortunately, they can’t be stored and preserved.

Furthermore, the probability that they will appear is low.

The people watched as Lin Moyu ate one Desert Fruit after another, and his skill’s level rose, a look of greed in their eyes.

However, no one dared to take action.

The skeletal army is no joke, not to mention that Lin Moyu is the party’s captain.

If they are kicked out of the dungeon, they will be left empty-handed.

Some have an envious look in their eyes, while others even have a look of resentment, as if Lin Moyu were robbing them.

Lin Moyu ignored them. If anyone wants to take his fruits, they can come and try.

Without having to consider the consumption, Lin Moyu ground Bone Armor at a rapid pace. It only took half an hour to cultivate the skill to level 21.

[Bone Armor (level 21): summons an armor of bones that provides 2,100 points of physical defense for five minutes; the skill can also be used on others]

At level 21, Bone Armor can provide 2,100 points of physical defense.

Even without his talent’s amplification, the skill is already quite powerful.

For Mages of the same level, their physique attribute is in the 300s.

Including equipment, their physique will range between 400 and 500.

Bone Armor, however, can provide 2,100 points of defense.

It’s not only more powerful than a Mage’s protective shield, but can even be applied to others.

If the talent’s 30-fold amplification is added into the mix, that will amount to 63,000 points of physical defense.

Lin Moyu feels that even if he stood still and let the Tyrant attack him, the Tyrant wouldn’t be able to break his defense.

He feels that even without the skeletons, so long as he was given enough spirit force, he could face the Tyrant head-on.

After all, Soul Blaze packs quite the punch.

After he was done with Bone Armor, Lin Moyu started grinding Slowing Curse.

A crimson light rose and enveloped the yellow sand.

The curse descended with a buzzing sound, as if noise from hell.

As the skill’s level rose, the red light became more intense and covered a wider range.

Later on, when Slowing Curse was unleashed, it was as if the world was shrouded in the curse.

[Slowing Curse (level 21): curses enemies within a range of 105 meters and reduces their speed by 105%; lasts for one minute.]

Coupled with his talent’s amplification, the reduction of speed reached 3,150%. That’s a 31-fold drop in speed.

At this time, Slowing Curse is enough to make most enemies seem like they’re in slow motion.

Moreover, the range reached 3,150 meters.

Even on a large battlefield, this range is enough to cover a lesser half of the battlefield.

Lin Moyu tried to release Slowing Curse on the empty sky.

With a buzzing sound, the entire sky turned crimson.

It’s as if the world has been painted bright red.

In the eyes of others, regardless of its effectiveness, the skill is rather dreadful.

Lin Moyu was very satisfied. Now only Corpse Explosion is left, which is still only level 3.

However, there’s no way around it. Corpses are needed to grind this skill.

There are still one-third of the Desert Fruits left, which amount to about sixty or seventy fruits.

They are no longer of any use to Lin Moyu.

He picked another three fruits and then said, “Divide the rest among yourselves. I’m going into the ant colony. While I’m gone, wait here for me.”

When he finished speaking, Lin Moyu entered the ant colony. Soon after, bursts of explosion transmitted from the ant colony.

Desert Fruits can only be stored for five minutes after they are picked.

Taking advantage of these five minutes — without a care for consumption — Lin Moyu used Corpse Explosion like crazy as he advanced.

When he ran out of spirit force, he would eat a fruit and then continue to use Corpse Explosion, not leaving a single corpse alone.

The entire ant colony shook and quaked continuously.

Outside the ant colony, when the people heard Lin Moyu’s words, their faces immediately lit up with a shade of elation.

They quickly darted over, vying over the Desert Fruits.

When it comes to grinding skills, Desert Fruits are regarded as godly objects. Even if they get only one or two fruits, it will be enough for them raise the level of a skill of theirs by one or two levels.

Chaos erupted in an instant.

For the sake of the Desert Fruits, these people even resorted to violence.

Lin Moyu paid them no mind.

In any case, they’re just a bunch of clowns.

There’s only a business relationship between him and them, where he will receive payment for carrying them. Anything else is none of his concern.

The next day, Xia Xue and Zuo Mei left the dormitory together.

After getting along last tight, the two quickly drew closer.

Zuo Mei doesn’t speak that much, but it’s still much more than Lin Moyu.

At least, Xia Xue can communicate with her normally.

Unlike Lin Moyu. Talking to him is like pulling teeth.

Zuo Mei is very curious about Lin Moyu, the imperial top scorer. Most of their conversation revolved around him.

They went to the cafeteria to have breakfast. It’s Xia Xue’s treat.

Xia Xue took charge in saying, “I will cover your food expenses from now on.”

Wherever gold coins can be used, the great Ms. Xia is unconcerned and at ease.

After all, she is rich and willful.

When they were done eating, the two headed toward the academy square.

The opening ceremony will be held there.

At this time, it is 8:00 am. There is still one hour left before the opening ceremony.

Quite a few students have already arrived, separating themselves by provinces.

After Xia Xue and Zuo Mei arrived, they met Feng Xiu.

Feng Xiu is dressed in a long robe, carrying a long sword on his back, exuding a valiant and ordinary temperament.

Xia Xue saw at a glance that Feng Xiu’s family is well-off.

Temperament isn’t something that can be cultivated as one wishes.

Standing there, exuding his temperament, Feng Xiu is very eye-catching.

Many female students were watching Feng Xiu, their beautiful eyes shining brightly.

“He’s so handsome.”

“He is Swordsman class user and is dashing.”

“I feel like I’m about to fall in love.”

The female students were mesmerized by him. Feng Xiu, however, didn’t care about all this attention. He is already used to it.

Upon seeing Xia Xue and Zuo Mei, Feng Xiu walked over and greeted them, “Hello.”

Xia Xue smiled, “You’re very popular.”

Feng Xiu showed a look of helplessness. He finds this attention a pain in the butt.

“Did you guys see Lin Moyu?”

Xia Xue shook her head, “We haven’t. But he should be coming.”

Feng Xiu looked into the distance, “He will surely come.”

Outside Dungeon Hall, Lin Moyu and company exited the dungeon.

The last batch of people have finally competed the dungeon mission.

At this moment, it is 8:30 am. There is still half an hour until the opening ceremony.

Seeing that there’s still time, Lin Moyu proceeded to checked his skills.

When he finished the last dungeon raid, he finally reached level 22.

Just as he expected, the level of his skills did indeed rise along with his level.

Lin Moyu understood an aspect of his class.

As long as he maxes out his skills — where they are on par with his level — when he levels up, his skills will also level up.

This puts his class ahead of many other classes.

He first went to the mission center and completed material missions, exchanging materials for points.

After going through eight dungeon raids and monopolizing all the materials, he has accumulated a large amount.

These materials earned him 10,000 points.

Each dungeon raid costs 2,500 points. That is to say, the materials offset the cost by half.

After carrying people through the dungeon six times, Lin Moyu obtained almost 240,000 points.

At this moment, he has a total of 350,000 points.

He can already be classified as being well-off.

However, in his eyes, these points are far from enough.

One intermediate skill scroll costs 80,000 points. 350,000 points are only enough to buy four skill scrolls.

Four intermediate skill scrolls are but a drop in the bucket.

If you use gold coins instead, the price is even more exorbitant, 10 million per scroll.

“I need to come up with ways to earn more points.” Lin Moyu mused, then left Dungeon Hall and rushed toward the academy square.

At the academy square, basically all new students have already arrived.

The opening ceremony is about to begin.

Xia Xue was a bit anxious, “Why hasn’t he come yet?”

“There are only 10 minutes left.”

Feng Xiu suddenly looked toward one side, “There he is.”
