Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 128 New Skills

In the following days, Wang Yue continued to bring out the living dead and the lost souls to the Trial Island to clean up the monsters.

Except for the Holy Land of Trial which was forced to close due to the battle, Wang Yue led his men to clear out the remaining demons in the ice field, jungle, and blood pool one by one.

The levels of these demons left on the Trial Island are all very high, perhaps because of Ou Fei's death. Their levels are between 15 and 18, and there are many types.

There are demon dogs hiding in the jungle and dark demons hiding in the ice and snow.

The blood pool had the largest number of monsters left behind, and the faceless ones were also the most difficult to deal with. Wang Yue spent the longest time cleaning up that map.

Fortunately, we borrowed some diving equipment from Baby and pulled a group of revived mermaids from the bottom of the sea, so the cleanup work was completed a few days ahead of schedule.

Before leaving, the new queen of the mermaids, Weiwei, proposed that the mermaids reside in the castle, but Wang Yue refused.

The situation is different for mermaids and cat people. They have excellent leaders and giant whales that can protect them.

Wang Yue temporarily took over the cat people. He just wanted to protect this weak group of beings. Although he also thought about developing the cat people into a great help in the future, it was mostly out of kindness.

"If it really depends on me, I will have to take care of it if something happens in the future. There are more powerful creatures in the sea than on land. If you really provoke a mysterious creature, even a giant dragon will be useless."

However, after being rejected, Wang Yue still promised to help, and suggested that the giant whale Russ swim around the castle and not go too far away.

During the battles in the past few days, Wang Yue's level slowly increased to level 18.

The Lost Souls and the Living Dead have all been upgraded to level 20. What’s more valuable is that after many days of cooperation, everyone can live in peace and understand Wang Yue’s simple instructions.

"Leveling up is nice, but I haven't gained a new skill in a long time."

Wang Yue has become an expert swordsman in the past few days, and his proficiency level has reached 23. In order to enhance his gaming experience, he tries to use weapons with his left hand as much as possible.

Apart from being able to skillfully wield a sword with his left hand, he had not learned any other skills.

Countless props were obtained from wild monsters. The most precious of these trophies were of course the skill books. Unfortunately, they were all skills for the eight major professions, which Wang Yue could not learn.

A lot of blueprints for secondary occupations were obtained, but the master-level characters in the castle looked down on the blueprints of the top two levels and returned them all to Wang Yue.

"Boy, you have gained a lot these days. If you are willing to exchange something, I am willing to teach you some skills."

"Did you steal the skills from others? Besides, you are just a ring now, don't be so arrogant."

Wang Yue had asked Sis before, but the old man always went to sleep whenever he encountered difficulties. He had a legitimate reason, which was to recuperate his soul.

This time when Sith appeared, what he wanted to get from Wang Yue was the bone fragment obtained from the devil.

Although Wang Yue understood Sith's idea, the bone fragments were also his immediate combat power. If he wanted them, "he had to pay more."

"With those two skills and the situation on the mainland, no one knows life on land better than me."

"A priest has just moved into my castle. I believe even a pig would change in a hundred years."

"Three skills in exchange for half of your bone fragment."

"make a deal."

The long-awaited mission popped up on the game interface, and Sith also showed his soul state in front of Wang Yue. He was a white-haired ghost with a long beard.

[Mission Target: Donate a first-level bone fragment (0/200)]

[Quest Reward: Random Necromancer Skills*3]

"Count them. There are exactly 200 bones from the demon dog here."

"It's really not too much, not too little, you kid don't even know how to respect your elders."

Sith took a deep breath, and the bone fragments on the ground melted into a thick black liquid, which was finally absorbed by Sith.

After getting the energy it wanted, it burped with satisfaction and retracted into the ring.

"Hey, where's my reward? Xiao Nuo, there's an NPC here who's defaulting on his debt, get rid of it for me."

Wang Yue stroked the ring, asking the old man to fulfill his promise as soon as possible.

Perhaps because he was annoyed by Wang Yue's touching, a thick book appeared from the ring and was thrown directly at Wang Yue's head.

[The Necromancer Magic That the Sith Won’t Tell You (I): The corpse is talking, and the one who hears it is the corpse]

[Effect: Master the ultimate use of corpses, play magic tutorial (three times)]

"Three skills turned into three learning opportunities? This is a scam!"

Another half arm extended from the ring, and Sith's thumb rubbed across the book, and the description of the book changed immediately.

[Plague, dead souls and blood: different manifestations of the same power, learn from one example and apply it to other cases]

[Effect: Master three types of necromancy, unlimited playback times]

"That's more like it."

Wang Yue opened the book, and a mini version of Sith floated out of the book. He preached to Wang Yue in the same annoying tone.

"Don't ask for so much, kid. If you aim too high, you will only get lost in the pursuit of power."

There are three schools of thought for every profession, and the Necromancer is no exception.

Although Wang Yue still doesn’t know what his future self will be like, these three skills alone are enough to give him a glimpse of his future path.

"Why does it sound like DK from an antique game? The names are almost the same?"

Sith began formal teaching, starting with the plague of [Corruption and Decay].

It is the same kind of curse as the [Corrosion] enchanted on Wang Yue's weapon. After the skill hits the target, the target will continue to lose blood until death, and it can also be dispelled by holy spells.

"The runes for the new spell are a bit complicated, and the incantation is a bit long."

The images recording Sith kept playing in front of Wang Yue. He watched and drew on the ground, and finally he finished drawing the rune of a [Plague Insect].

Wang Yue found an innocent monster, shone the rune on it, and silently chanted a spell.

[Invisible insects arrive in spring]

[It will prevent the beginning of the cycle of suffering]

【Everything withers, rots and decays】

A portion of the mana was extracted and turned into countless tiny black insects that flew towards the opponent.

A curse mark immediately appeared under the monster's health bar. Insects gnawed at the wild boar, and before it rushed towards Wang Yue, it had been gnawed till nothing remained, leaving only bones.

"It deals damage once per second, and the damage is calculated based on the opponent's maximum health... but there is a damage cap, so you can't treat all bosses the same."

This ranged skill is best used as a starting attack, and the longer you delay, the easier it will be to win.

The rune images of dead souls and blood are withered claws and hearts, and the new skills are called [Soul Extraction] and [Bleeding Heart Stab] respectively.

The effect of [Soul Extraction] is to absorb the opponent's mana. As long as the opponent is not sucked dry or Wang Yue's mana has not reached the upper limit, the skill will not fail.

[Bleeding Heart] is a melee skill that performs a weak point attack and causes the opponent to have a [bleeding] effect based on the damage caused by the attack.

After learning three skills, Wang Yue achieved great improvements in both long-range and melee combat, which provided him with support for his immediate development in a new place.
