Chapter 32: Chapter 32 ‘Skeleton Reinforcement

“300,000.”

Zi Liyuan fully demonstrated his not-lacking-money characteristic, hiking the price up by a large margin in one go.

“Kid, intentionally disrupting the market price, whose family are you from, being so ignorant of the rules?”

Chen Ye’s face became even colder, and anger flashed through his eyes.

“Seeing something I like, I was just about to head into the instance to level up. This saves me the trouble of running to the official auction to look for a reconnaissance skill book.” ƒreewebɳovel.com

“Being a rich second generation sure means not lacking money. Fatty here will raise it once more, 350,000. If you exceed that, you can have it.”

Ge Erfat raised his hand with a grin, even making faces to provoke Chen Ye.

“Bad luck! Finally encounter a treasure, but had to bump into a rich second generation. I’m not playing this game.”

Chen Ye cursed under his breath with a displeased look, turned his head, and left towards the crowd outside to see if there were any bargains to be found at other stalls.

“360,000, thanks to this Fatty for stepping aside.”

Zi Liyuan raised his hand and then expressed his thanks to Ge Erfat.

“Alright, this Necromancer bids 360,000. Does anyone offer a higher price?” “360,000 for the first time! 360,000 for the second time! 360,000 for the third time! Sold! Congratulations to this Necromancer for obtaining the desired skill!”

The host, with an excited face, took out the card reader and sent a trade request to Zi Liyuan.

Swipe the card, make the trade, and the skill “Dark Eye Vision” is obtained.

Learn it, open the attribute panel, and check the details of the skill.

The introduction was still the same as before but now included a scan range.

Zi Liyuan, with a Spirit of 176 points, could now probe targets up to 176 meters away and could vaguely see hidden units.

If that had been all, Zi Liyuan might have felt the skill was just so-so.

But the highlighted ” + ” symbol following the skill made his spirits lift.

This signified that by using a Nether Crystal Core and consuming energy, he could mutate and enhance this skill!

When Zi Liyuan’s gaze fell on the “+” symbol, the skill “Dark Eye Vision” displayed two mutation enhancement paths.

(1)? Mutation Enhancement: Consume 15,000 units of energy to enhance Dark Eye Vision to “Eye of Shadow.”

(2)? Mutation Enhancement: Consume 30,000 units of energy to enhance Dark Eye Vision to the Eye of Death.

With Zi Liyuan’s current 15,100 Spiritual Energy, it was only enough to mutate and enhance option (1).

Just as he was about to enhance, the system notified him that he had received a trade request.

The very Ge Erfat who had just been competing with him had somehow made his way over and was making faces at him.

Zi Liyuan frowned slightly but still clicked to accept the trade request.

In the trade window lay two skill books and an item, silently placed: “Skeleton Reinforcement,” “Miasma of Death,” [Dead Spirit War Drum].

One was a passive skill book for strengthening summoned skeletons;

The other was a mist skill that obstructed vision, with a slight boost to the Undead;

And a war drum carved from mighty skeletons, which would enhance the strength of undead when placed in a Spatial Backpack.

“Little brother, no need for Fatty to say more, you understand the value of these three items. These are treasures that can significantly boost the combat power for low-tier death-related classes!”

Ge Erfat rubbed his hands together with a smile, his eyes turned into crescents, the very image of a sly merchant.

“Fatty, name a fair price.”

If money can solve the problem, then it’s not really a problem.

“Fatty does honest business, fair and square, flat price 1.5 million!”

Encountering a big fat sheep, when else to slaughter if not now?

At such a special juncture, charging double the market price isn’t too excessive, right?

Besides, when one is willingly hit and the other willingly endures, it’s truly a win-win!

“Deal!”

Dealing with such a crafty merchant, haggling with him would definitely take quite a bit of time.

Rather than spending time haggling with a crafty merchant, I’d rather learn the skills and get straight into dungeon grinding.

Swipe the card, complete the transaction, and three items in hand.

Learn, open the attribute panel, check the skill details.

“Skeleton Reinforcement” (Blue, Level 1, 0/10,000): Passively enhances skeleton-type undead creatures; each level increases damage by +4, physical defense by +2, magic resistance by +1, and health by +30; exclusive to death-class professions.

This is a passive enhancement skill that is even more powerful than skeleton domination, but it also requires more experience to level up.

“Miasma of Death” (Blue, Level 1, 0/10,000): Summons a cloud of death fog over a specified area, reducing visibility for living creatures (undead are not affected), all undead within the fog gain +1 damage; the range of the fog is equal to the strength of the Spirit (in meters), consumes 500 Spiritual Energy, lasts for 60 seconds, with a cooldown of 600 seconds; exclusive to death-class professions.

This is one of the most commonly used battlefield skills for death-class professions, able to obstruct the enemy’s line of sight and thereby gain territorial advantage.

[Dead Spirit War Drum (Blue Item)]: Carved from the bones of a powerful magical beast, once placed in the Spatial Backpack, all undead creatures gain +20 damage; exclusive to death-class professions, usable at Level 20.

This item is an absolute gem in the early stages, given that all death-class professions can summon undead minions.

Zi Liyuan felt regretful that just like skeleton domination, “Skeleton Reinforcement” could not be anomalously enhanced.

However, “Miasma of Death” could be anomalously enhanced into a Death Cloud, but it would require 50,000 energy, something not to be considered in the short term.

But these two exceptional skills alone boosted the entire Skeleton Army’s combat power by thirty percent.

Therefore, Zi Liyuan went to the altar and stepped into the dungeon, choosing the Level 40 “Ogre Forest,” with the difficulty set to Heroic!

The dark forest boasted towering trees and weeds covering up to one’s waist. It was eerily quiet all around without even the sound of insects.

Summoning, Skeleton Army with the Skeleton Behemoth as the core and the Shield Combat Skeleton, Crossbow Skeleton, and Mage Skeletons as support.

A dense army of bones began clearing all around.

[Ogre Warrior (Elite)]

[Level]: Level 35

[Attributes]: Physical Damage 80, Physical Defense 55, Magic Resistance 45, Health 20,000.

[Skills]:???

[Combat Power]: 150

[Double-Headed Ogre Warrior (Rare)]

[Level]: Level 38

[Attributes]: Physical Damage 120, Physical Defense 75, Magic Resistance 55, Health 40,000.

[Skills]: ???

[Combat Power]: 250

The density of ogres wasn’t particularly high, roughly one every too meters.

The Skeleton Army, having received another round of enhancements, became incredibly fierce, as if they had opened their meridian channels, making their assault even more razor-sharp.

While the Skeleton Army was annihilating monsters, Zi Liyuan opened the skill bar, poured in experience points, and began stacking “Skeleton Reinforcement” to Level 5.

“Skeleton Reinforcement” (Level 5, —/5O,OOO): Damage +20, Physical Defense +10, Magic Resistance +5, Health +150.

Considering the current state of Zi Liyuan’s Skeleton Army, ordinary elite and rare monsters were truly just there to hand over experience points.

One ogre warrior could provide over 3,000 experience points, and a double-headed ogre warrior could offer over 10,000 experience points.

Slaughter, slaughter, slaughter; where the Skeleton Army passed, all living creatures perished.

Every creature within the dungeon became prey for the Skeleton Army; they were obliterated without a trace.

But when Zi Liyuan’s Skull Army pushed through to the final boss encounter, he was taken aback.

The final boss of this cursed dungeon wasn’t just one, but a maddening pair in tandem!

When Zi Liyuan, through his anomalously enhanced “Eye of Shadow,” scouted the information of the two Heroic bosses, he was completely dumbfounded.
