Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 20: Pillar of Hell
The price paid for collecting the mission items this time was exactly in line with Wang Yue's expectations.

Facing a monster over level 60, he successfully escaped by consuming only 6 skeletons. Both strength and luck are indispensable.

The ruins are a must-pass place on the way back. Wang Yue, who was caught in the air, noticed that the stone house in the center of the ruins emitted a bright red light.

"Could it be that the inferior demon has appeared again?"

The suspected summoning light made Wang Yue alert. He quickly asked Goudan to stop, and then took out the [Evil Spirit Map] to check the situation.

Some monsters will have their own special effects when they are refreshed. The red light in the distance is likely to be a [Flame Imp].

"Only one goal? How can there be only one goal?"

Only a red dot appeared on the parchment, indicating that only one actively attacking monster appeared in front of Wang Yue.

According to his own game design, inferior demons appear in groups because their individual strength is too weak.

"Xiao Nuo, check to see if there is another loophole."

"No Imp-like creatures detected."

"Not a Leviathan?"

Since it is not a inferior demon, it must be a strange enemy.

Wang Yue asked Goudan to put him down and he would go alone to check the situation.

"Did I trigger some BOSS?"

The teleportation node not only allows players to transfer, it can also serve monsters, so it is not surprising if there are uninvited guests.

"This damn plot deduction system might even send me another dragon."

Wang Yue tiptoed up to the platform, listening to any noise coming from the surroundings.

But it was too quiet here, and no alarm appeared in the game interface.

"Hold on, I'm the game maker, there's no monster I can't kill."

While waiting for his strength to recover, he slowly climbed onto the platform.

But the platform was exactly the same as before, the strange magic circle on the ground had not changed, and the cleared rubble around it was still piled together.

"If there are no bugs, it will be a trigger-type battle..."

Wang Yue quickly took out a piece of bone and crushed it, then used [Dark Energy Extraction] to fully restore her mana.

He stood up, summoned a skeleton to his side, and drew out his [Bone Spike] in preparation for the fight.

[Warning: Emergency battle triggered]

"Sure enough."

Wang Yue, fully armed, was ready, with his hand quietly placed on the [teleportation pocket watch].

"Become my servant and serve me."

Smoke rose from the ground, and the orange-red mist covered the entire ruins. A figure gradually appeared in front of Wang Yue.

The bull head spitting fire looked down at Wang Yue. The armor on his body was not only colorful, but also had countless inscriptions engraved on his red skin. Wang Yue's body was reflected in his huge golden pupils.

[Demon Minotaur: One of the thirty pillars of the demon world. I won’t tell you it’s just an illusion]

【Level: 1】

Wang Yue didn't move, and suddenly a piece of parchment floated down from the air.

The parchment was filled with devilish words, but Wang Yue didn't need to understand the words, as the item description had already popped up on the game interface.

[Contract (Master): After signing it, you will gain endless power from hell]

"Minotaur, what is the price then?"

Wang Yue didn't need the devil's response. He smiled crookedly. This kind of misleading thing would not work well on players.

The opponent's level is only level 1, so this kind of battle is totally ridiculous.

"Accept your fate."

"just you?"

Wang Yue threw the contract into the air and pierced the parchment with a rapier. The movements were smooth and fluid. In Wang Yue's eyes, this contract was worthless.

After the contract was pierced, the parchment burned in mid-air and turned into ashes in an instant.

"Foolish man, nightmares will always be with you."

The Minotaur's body suddenly enlarged countless times, and the figure of a demon appeared behind it. The bull's head sprayed dark red flames towards the sky, as if the whole world was burning.

"Damn it, the devil who cursed me to sleep will die miserably."

Seeing the level 1 monster so arrogant, Wang Yue simply picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at the target.

[Damage caused: 1]

After receiving damage, the phantom's health bar disappears instantly.

The health bar of this special monster is just a symbol and will disappear once it takes damage.

Seeing that he could not bewitch the person in front of him, the shadow gradually disappeared.

Before the Pillar of Hell was about to disappear, he looked at Wang Yue deeply, wanting to remember the human who had offended it.

The fog settled and everything around us immediately returned to normal.

"You are the foolish one. I am a necromancer, not a wizard who likes succubi."

Wang Yue put his hands on his waist and started cursing, but in fact he had been feeling guilty for a long time.

The Thirty Pillars of the Demon Realm are the main villains in the game. Each pillar represents the strongest demon of its kind. The weakest demon, the 60th pillar, is also level , and is an elite template with an army of demons.

He kept glancing at the lower right corner of the interface, believing that as long as no strange icons appeared, the devil's last words would only scare himself.

"You are really trying to scare me. Materialism is the way to go."

After spending a long time confirming that there was nothing abnormal, Wang Yuexian felt relieved.

Then he walked to the center of the magic circle in a rage and placed the cleaned stones on the magic circle again.

"With your limited strength, you dare to come out and scare others? You should stay in hell and never come out."

Only when the magic circle was completely covered by rubble did Wang Yue feel completely safe.

It took too long to vent his anger. When Wang Yue calmed down, he remembered that he had to complete the task of delivering Razor Flower.

...

"Goudan, let's go."

Wang Yue found that using Goudan as a means of transportation was very convenient, and it was not slow, and it also allowed him to take some time off.

After a lot of trouble, they finally returned to the [Shelter] and came back to the pharmacist's door.

The remaining dirt at the door is still the same, and the dried razor blades are still waiting to be rescued.

"I hope this little bit of soil is enough to revive your herbs, or I'll have to make another desperate trip."

Wang Yue squatted on the ground, gathered all the herbal residues together, and then covered them with [Scorching Soil].

"I have never grown flowers before, maybe watering them would be better."

After covering the medicinal residue with soil, the soil, which originally had a high temperature, gradually cooled down, and even the iconic red color of the soil began to fade slowly.

Nutrients are being absorbed quickly, and the plants are prying open the soil due to their rapid growth.

"Is this the magic of Herbology? I feel like time has been shortened by a second."

Soon, green leaves grew out from the light red soil. The leaves were only the size of a thumb, but the green color was too conspicuous.

Wang Yue took a closer look and found that the razor flower, which was just in pieces, had revived so quickly.

[Razor Flower (Growing): The herb that conceals the breath requires high temperatures to grow. Please be patient.]

The pharmacist noticed the situation outside the house, and the wooden door was gently pushed open, revealing another hidden master's face.

"Isn't she the living dead?"

The woman in front of him had wheat-colored skin, and compared to the pale zombie, her whole body was full of vitality.
