Full-Time Magister: All-Element Mutant Star Child
Chapter 73 Exploring the Tomb of the Dead
"It's also because my control over magic is too low; I can only release magic step by step. Otherwise, I could have spread out my magic to kill as many undead servants as possible, while ensuring that I could kill them all."
After killing the undead minions for a while, Dongfang Yang suddenly heard a loudspeaker in one direction announcing the arrival of a skeleton warrior.
Just as Dongfang Yang was about to rush over, he saw several mid-level spells appear in that direction, and the skeleton warrior was directly bombarded by the magic.
However, Dongfang Yang still went to take a look, hoping to find a rare general-level spirit.
But when Dongfang Yang went there, there was nothing, not even a remnant of a warrior-level spirit. Clearly, someone in this area was able to collect spirit fragments.
Dongfang Yang had no intention of competing with the person whose essence and spirit had come from for the remaining fragments of the essence and spirit.
After leaving this place and dealing with some more undead servants, Dongfang Yang returned to the city wall carrying a warrior-level undead crystal, a servant-level alien bone, and five servant-level undead crystals of decent quality, all wrapped in his coat.
Dongfang Yang originally did not intend to collect slave-level undead crystals, but after finding nothing else, he took a few with him.
One Undead Crystal costs two thousand yuan, so ten Crystals would cost twenty thousand yuan. After deducting the hotel rent for Dongfang Yang and Lingling for a month, they would only have enough money left for a month's food.
The combined value of the slave-level alien bones and the warrior-level undead crystals should be around 500,000.
It's a pity that Dongfang Yang doesn't have a storage magic artifact or a personal space. Otherwise, he could have collected over a hundred more servant-level undead crystals, which would be worth two or three hundred thousand.
After finding Lingling, Lingling praised Dongfang Yang, saying, "Your strength is not weak."
"It's alright," Dongfang Yang replied.
"Let's go back. I'll go to the mage market and sell the undead crystal and the strange bone, then buy a spatial storage magic artifact."
"We didn't bring a lot of materials worth two or three hundred thousand yuan. It would be such a waste to do this every day. Two or three hundred thousand yuan a day, that adds up to several million yuan a month."
……
After dropping Lingling off at the hotel, Dongfang Yang went to the Ancient Capital Magic Market and sold the Undead Crystal and the Strange Bone.
A single undead crystal of warrior rank sold for 100,000.
Ten Servant-level Undead Crystals sold for 15,000, a price lower than Dongfang Yang had expected.
A slave-level alien bone sold for 300,000.
In other words, Dongfang Yang earned more than 400,000 this time, not counting his essence and remnants.
As for the slave-level remnants, there are the remnants dropped by the undead that Dongfang Yang hunted himself, the remnants dropped by other mages who killed undead using the Soul Ring, and the slave-level remnants that were left over from before.
At this point, the Ring of the Dead only had a little over three hundred Slave-level remnants, enough to synthesize two Slave-level essences.
Dongfang Yang kept the warrior-level essence, planning to deal with it after returning to his family.
Dongfang Yang currently has nearly 25 million in his pocket, so selling a temporary storage magic item shouldn't be a problem.
Currently, Dongfang Yang's spatial system is only at the initial level two. Once Dongfang Yang cultivates to the intermediate level, he will have a storage space, and then he will no longer need a storage magic artifact.
After entering a rather upscale-looking shop selling magical artifacts and tools, a staff member spoke to Dongfang Yang:
"What do you need, guests?"
Dongfang Yang said, "I need a storage magic artifact."
The staff member said, "Please follow me, guest."
Soon, Dongfang Yang purchased a storage magic ring for ten million.
This storage ring is a mortal-level magical artifact used by novice mages, but it can also be used by intermediate mages.
Storage magical artifacts are much more expensive than normal magical artifacts; even a mere mortal-level one can cost ten million.
This storage device has a cube-shaped storage space with sides of three meters, which should be enough for temporary use for a few months.
……
After returning to the hotel, Dongfang Yangming rested for a while to recover his magical energy before going to sleep.
Although he could still hear the howls of the undead here, because of the influence of his previous torture and killing of the undead, Dongfang Yang only felt that it was noisy and had no fear at all.
Dongfang Yang picked up the earplugs from the bedside table, put them on, and went to sleep.
……
The next morning, while having breakfast, Lingling spoke to Dongfang Yang,
"I've reviewed the intelligence and found that the Throat-Sealing Horned Ghost usually appears in tombs. If we want to find the Throat-Sealing Horned Ghost, we need to explore the tombs of the dead, preferably newly formed ones."
"Of course, when the undead besiege the ancient capital every night, there is also the possibility of throat-sealing horned ghosts appearing among the undead horde, so we also need to investigate at night."
"Finding the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon is very troublesome. If it were other demons, it would be easier to use some instruments to detect energy fluctuations to help find them. But the Throat-Sealing Horned Demon can conceal its energy fluctuations, making it difficult for instruments to detect. We can only use the most basic method to find it."
The land of the dead outside the ancient capital can be described as being filled with graves.
Servant-level undead mostly burrow directly into the ground.
For general-level undead, after burrowing into the ground, they are usually expanded into tombs.
The tombs of commander-level undead are larger.
Perhaps this was the setting when the ancient king created the necromancer system, in this underworld land of the ancient capital.
All corpses, regardless of type, become undead, and thus transform into humanoid undead. Even if an undead was a demon in life, it will piece together its limbs to resemble a near-human form after becoming an undead.
All the dead are reborn from death; all the dead roam at night, so be careful during the day.
All the dead have the concept of being laid to rest and "building a house" (a traditional Chinese practice).
If a spirit has the ability, it will dig its own grave. Of course, some lazy spirits prefer to live in unclaimed graves.
Some undead even capture other undead to "bury with them."
Some undead even collect magical artifacts and tools left behind by mages, as well as bones and undead crystals left behind by their own kind after death, to use as "burial goods" in the tomb later.
Of course, the former is more common, while the latter is also useful for the undead. The undead can absorb undead crystals to become stronger, or they can install powerful limbs to become stronger. Strange bones are one type of limb.
There are many tombs beneath the land outside the ancient capital. Some of these tombs were left over from ancient times, while others were recently dug by the spirits of the dead themselves.
The ancient capital has considerable strength, so it's unlikely that all these tombs were left over from ancient times.
Dongfang Yang said to Lingling, "Then let's explore the Tomb of the Dead during the day."
"During the day, the undead burrow into the ground, so if we're exploring the tomb, we just need to enter and deal with the undead inside. Once we find the Throat-Sealing Demon, we don't need to worry about it escaping the tomb."
"At night, I'll go find the Throat-Sealing Horned Ghost when the undead attack the city walls."
Lingling replied, "That's what I meant too."
"I also bought information about a Warrior-level undead tomb last night. Let's go outside and look for it in a bit."
Dongfang Yang and Lingling knew that they were going to explore the tomb of the dead during the day, and the others naturally knew as well.
