Game Invasion: Awakening the Necromancer at the Start

"Su Li, your SSS-rank class is indeed very strong." Her voice was calm as still water. "But the difficult mode of the Dark Forest dungeon requires teamwork. My ice-type control can restrict the monsters' movements, creating a better output environment for your brother's summons."

She paused, then added, "Moreover, the first clear reward for Hard Mode is very generous, with a chance to drop blue-quality equipment."

It is well-reasoned and based on solid evidence; it is entirely a rational analysis.

But the golden flames in Su Li's eyes flickered.

"Senior Lin is right." She released Su Wan's arm, took a step forward, and her smile remained sweet. "Teamwork is indeed very important. However..."

She tilted her head, looking innocent. "My brother's skeleton seems to kill monsters without needing to be controlled. Wasn't that how it was in the abandoned mine earlier?"

Lin Qingyue remained silent.

Indeed, Su Wan's solo speedrun of five dungeons just now relied on the overwhelming sheer number of skeletons.

When faced with an overwhelming numerical advantage, the value of control skills is greatly reduced.

But she still insisted: "That's a low-level dungeon. The mobs in the Dark Forest are level 5-7, the elite mobs are level 8, and the boss is level 10. The advantage in numbers will be less effective against a level advantage."

"What if..." A sly glint flashed in Su Li's eyes, "...I'd go too?"

Lin Qingyue was taken aback.

"I'm an SSS-rank Eternal Seraph, and my Holy Light skills deal 200% extra damage to the mutated creatures of the Dark Forest," Su Li said, counting on her fingers as if she knew them by heart. "And I have group healing, shields, and buff auras... that should be more useful than simple ice-based control, right?"

She looked at Lin Qingyue, a hint of provocation in her smile: "What do you think, Senior Lin?"

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone could see that this wasn't a discussion about team composition at all; it was the wife's warning to a potential rival!

Zhao Ming watched from behind, gritting his teeth in anger.

Why? Su Wan, an F-rank necromancer, why should two top-tier genius girls fight over her?!

His A-level profession, which should have been dazzling, was nothing more than a drop in the ocean compared to these three.

He was about to make a sarcastic remark when he saw Lin Qingyue suddenly nod.

"You're right." Lin Qingyue's expression remained calm. "If an SSS-level support were to join, the team's composition would indeed be more perfect."

She looked at Su Wan: "So, Su Wan, would you be willing to accept Su Li and me joining the team at the same time? The three of us, plus your summoned creature, should be able to try challenging the Hell difficulty."

Hell difficulty!

As soon as those three words were uttered, a collective gasp filled the hall.

"The Dark Forest's Hell difficulty... the recommended level is a full five-person party of level 15!"

"Trying to challenge hell right after awakening? Are you crazy!"

"But what if it's an SSS-rank + S-rank + that freakish necromancer..."

Su Wan finally spoke.

He hadn't spoken since the beginning, partly because he was checking the details of the new skill [Resurrection of the Dead], and partly...

It's definitely giving me a headache.

His sister's possessiveness was stronger than he had imagined.

Lin Qingyue, this girl... is frighteningly rational.

Even knowing that Su Li was clearly against it, he was still able to calmly analyze the pros and cons and propose the most reasonable solution.

"Okay." Su Wan nodded. "However, I need to explain first that my summons have a rather unique aggro calculation method, so you'll need to coordinate with my rhythm during the battle."

"No problem," Lin Qingyue readily agreed.

Although Su Li was reluctant, seeing that her brother had agreed, she could only pout and nod, "I'll listen to you, brother."

"Okay." Su Wan glanced at the time; it was 8:10 PM. "Shall we go now?"

"Now?" Lin Qingyue was a little surprised. "Don't you want to rest? You just ran five dungeons in a row, your mana must be depleted."

"It's recovered," Su Wan said calmly.

He barely lifted a finger in the dungeon, relying entirely on the skeletons to clear everything. With his mana regeneration speed and the ability to level up, he's almost at full strength now.

More importantly... after completing the hidden quest, he leveled up to level 5.

Name: Su Wan

[Level: 5 (285/600)]

[Class: Necromancer Lord (Unique Hidden)]

[HP: 160/160]

[Mana: 400/400 (Spirit x10 + Class Bonus)]

【Strength: 9】

[Agility: 10]

[Physical Fitness: 9]

[Spirit: 40 (+3)]

[Summoned Items: 100/∞]

【技能：召唤骷髅（Lv2）、骷髅射手召唤（Lv1）、死亡缠绕（Lv1）、骨盾（Lv1）、亡者复生（Lv1）】

Level 5, Spirit reaches 40 points!

What does this mean?

This means that he only needs 7 mana to summon a skeleton, and can summon 57 skeletons at full power!

The 100 skeletons he currently has consume 1 point of mana per minute per skeleton, so 100 skeletons would consume 100 points per minute.

400 mana points can only keep the skeleton alive for 4 minutes.

But that's enough.

Because... the speedrun record for the Dark Forest dungeon is 12 minutes.

"Let's do it now." Lin Qingyue didn't waste any words and took out two passes that glowed with purple light from her storage space. "I have two Hell difficulty passes, which I originally planned to use after reaching level 10. But now... it's worth a try."

A Hell difficulty pass has a market price of at least 500 gold coins, and it's practically impossible to find one.

She casually pulled out two bills, which shows that she comes from a well-off family.

Seeing this, Su Li also took out a purple pass from her resource box: "I have one too."

Three Hell difficulty passes.

The students in the hall all had red eyes.

"Holy crap... three hell certificates!"

"This roster, these resources... this is definitely a team with huge financial backers!"

"That necromancer really got incredibly lucky..."

Ignoring the discussion, Su Wan accepted the pass from Lin Qingyue: "Thanks. Loot will be distributed as needed after clearing the level."

"Okay." Lin Qingyue nodded.

The three walked towards the dungeon portal.

The female administrator, seeing the three purple passes, trembled again: "T-Students, are you sure you want to challenge the Hell difficulty? The mortality rate is very high..."

"OK." Su Wan nodded.

The female teacher sighed, stopped trying to dissuade her, and took the pass to activate the portal.

A purple light shone forth, deeper and more dangerous than the previous blue portal.

"Once inside, I'll immediately unleash Frost Nova to control the battlefield," Lin Qingyue concluded, giving her tactical instructions. "Su Li, please stick close to me. Your healing skills..."

"I know what to do," Su Li interrupted her, then hugged Su Wan's arm. "Brother, I will protect you."

Lin Qingyue glanced at her but didn't say anything more.

The three stepped into the purple light.

A hundred skeletons followed closely behind, surging in like a white torrent.

The portal is closed.

In the hall, no one left; instead, they stared intently at the timer on the door.

[Team: Su Wan (Level 5 Necromancer), Su Li (Level 5 Eternal Seraph), Lin Qingyue (Level 5 Frost Mage)]

[Dungeon: Dark Forest - Hell Difficulty]

【in progress……】

"here we go……"

Do you think it will pass?

"Hard to say... Monsters in Hell difficulty have three times the stats of normal monsters, and they also have special mechanics..."

"But that's SSS-rank + S-rank..."
