The skeleton is too invincible; I leveled up with the school beauty!

[Ding! A compatible soul has been detected!]

[The Undead Evolution System is activated!]

[Reincarnation process begins!]

A cold, mechanical voice suddenly pierced the chaos, and Xu Nuo abruptly opened his "eyes".

Of course, if those two flickering, ghostly blue flames can be considered eyes.

He looked around blankly and found himself lying in an ancient bronze coffin.

The coffin walls were covered with obscure runes, emitting a faint, blood-red glow.

coffin??

A surge of turmoil instantly welled up in Xu Nuo's heart.

no?!

Who put me in a coffin?!

I'm still alive! Let me out! Xu Nuo was about to pound on the coffin for help when she suddenly made a horrifying discovery—

His hands... had no flesh and blood, only bones remained!

No, if you touch yourself again, you'll find—

Not just his hands! His entire body was just bones!!

No?! This?! This...!

What... what's going on?

Could it be that he... has been dead for a long time and has turned into a skeleton?

He tried to recall his last memories: the rainy night he delivered takeout, the glaring headlights, the intense pain...

And now.

But what is his current state? A digital life form? Electronic ashes?

[Welcome to the Undead Evolution System] [Current Form: F-Rank Skeleton Soldier (Next stage: Evolves into E-Rank Skeleton Warrior)]

【Strength: 10】

[Defense: 10]

[Agility: 10]

【Spirit: 10】

[Talent Skill: Infinite Absorption (by hunting and absorbing the essence of death from living beings, gaining a portion of the target's attributes, skills, and evolutionary energy)]

[Evolution Quest: Hunt down 10 F-rank undead creatures (0/10)]

[Note: All creatures spawned in dungeons and rifts, regardless of form or race, are fundamentally driven by undead/necromantic energy!]

[Treasure Trove of the Dead: Three related sealed artifacts detected. The host can unlock the first sealed artifact upon reaching Rank E!]

"Infinite Devouring? Isn't this the plot of those wish-fulfillment novels?" The ghostly flames in Xu Nuo's eyes flickered, and the system interface clearly appeared before his eyes.

So, he really is dead. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

However, does this evolutionary system mean that he can still be saved? Is there still hope for him to come back to life?

The problem is, he's trapped in this coffin now, how is he supposed to evolve?

You can't level up through meditation, can you?

Just then, a woman's voice, trembling with sobs, could be faintly heard from outside:

"Please, please..."

"It has to be a powerful contract beast..."

"My mom is still in the intensive care unit, waiting for me to earn scholarship money to save her life..."

"My dad's still in the dungeon, his fate unknown, waiting for me to become a strong enough warrior to save him..."

The voice trembled violently, as if it were a prayer made with all its might.

Xu Nuo looked out through the crack in the coffin lid.

A giant holographic projection floated in the center of the square, displaying world news on a loop.

[Dragon Kingdom SSS-rank Undead Plague "Royal Domination" solo SSS-rank Kunlun Abyss dungeon, ending the 33-day Red Moon Riot]

[A South Korean SS-rank "Ghost-Faced Priest" activated the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to suppress the Busan Rift, resulting in 10 civilians becoming undead]

[The SSS-rank Moon Apostle "Artemis" pierced the Norwegian Trench with her Moon Arrow, temporarily freezing the SS-rank dungeon "Cthulhu's Slumber"]

[The SS-rank Japanese priestess "Amaterasu Chiba" summons the phantom of the Yamata no Orochi to annihilate a million-strong undead tide (including 3 S-rank skeletal dragons) in Tokyo Bay]

Looking at these shocking news reports, Xu Nuo keenly realized—

This seems to be a highly martial arts world rife with anomalies and where the strong are revered.

And it seems that undead creatures are not uncommon in this world?

The next moment, his gaze was drawn to the stunningly beautiful black-haired girl kneeling in the center of the magic circle.

The girl clasped her hands together, tears falling onto the shimmering runes, splashing up faint spiritual light.

The surrounding students were pointing and whispering, many with gloating expressions on their faces.

"Su Wanqing, the beautiful school belle, is really in trouble this time. With such a powerful talent, she awakened to become a Contract Master, a profession that costs a lot of money and depends on looks.

"Yes, it's a pity I heard her mother doesn't have much time left and is hoping for a gene serum to prolong her life! But one dose of the gene serum costs a staggering five million!"

"What a beautiful girl, but it's a pity that her background is so tragic. Her father basically died in the game, and her mother needs to pay exorbitant medical fees every day. She has to shoulder all the burdens of the family."

"Heh, the main problem is that she's tactless. If she had agreed to be Wang Dao's sugar daddy sooner, her mother's medical expenses would have been covered long ago, wouldn't they?"

"Hey, you guys think this coffin looks really strange? Could it be the remains of an ancient emperor?"

"Haha, maybe it'll be a mummy inside!"

The mockery grew increasingly intense, and Su Wanqing, the school beauty, became paler and paler, tears welling up in her eyes.

In 2026, human civilization will face its most absurd doomsday.

It wasn't nuclear war, it wasn't a plague, but a game called "Endless Kill" that devoured reality.

When the first data rift opened in the sky, people mistook it for the aurora borealis. Until countless interdimensional rifts appeared all over the world, from the F-rank Slime Nest to the SSS-rank Abyss Forbidden Zone that could devour the entire Pacific Ocean.

Humanity was horrified to discover that the rules of the world had been completely rewritten.

In this crazy new world, all humans who turn eighteen will awaken a profession.

The levels are divided into the following categories from low to high:

Standard (70%) →

Elite (20%) →

Rare grade (9.9999%) →

Epic (0.00009%) →

Legendary (0.00001%)!

Su Wanqing's slender fingers gripped the hem of her school uniform skirt tightly.

She is the recognized genius beauty of Luolong Academy, possessing both beauty and intelligence, and is the dream goddess of many.

But at this moment, she only felt irony.

"The good news is, I've awakened a legendary class..."

The girl gave a self-deprecating smile, a hint of bitterness flashing in her eyes.

"The bad news is... this legendary-level weapon is actually worse than a regular-level one."

Contract Master – a legendary profession that costs a lot of money and is a gamble with your life.

To everyone else, this was like a high-stakes gamble. If they won, they would summon ancient heroes and soar to new heights.

If you lose the bet and make a contract with a slime, your life is completely over.

"Can I... afford to gamble?"

She subconsciously touched the pocket on her chest, where a hospital bill for overdue payments was kept.

Thirty-six thousand yuan.

This is my mother's hospital bill for this week.

To pay for medical treatment, the house left by my father was sold, our savings were exhausted, and we were left with a mountain of debt...

If the summoning fails today... how am I supposed to survive?

If I summon a money-devouring beast... how am I supposed to afford it, and how am I supposed to raise it?

Su Wanqing's thin shoulders trembled slightly, but she stubbornly straightened up the next second.

She can't fall!

This family now depends on her!

"Girl, don't panic."

An old but steady voice suddenly rang out.

Su Wanqing looked up and found that Dean Lu Tianming had been standing beside her at some point, his cloudy eyes gleaming with a deep light.

Lu Tianming patted her on the shoulder encouragingly, "Don't worry, as long as you summon a powerful contracted beast, the academy will cover all your training costs! No matter how many resources you need, the academy will fully support you."

"Furthermore, the five million needed for your mother's treatment will also be easily resolved!"

Su Wanqing took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the ancient bronze coffin.

The summoned creature in the coffin was her last hope.

God, please hear my humble prayer...

"With my blood, I call your name!"

"Come forth, my contractor..."

The moment the girl bit her fingertip, and her blood dripped onto the coffin—

"Snap!"

The bronze coffin trembled violently, and the ancient runes on the coffin lid suddenly lit up with a scarlet blood light!

The entire summoning platform began to shake violently, and a suffocating pressure filled the air.

"This, this is..."

Lu Tianming's pupils suddenly contracted.
