The Wizard: Starting as a Corpse Burial Man - An Infinite Side Hustle

The requirements for the "Bone Shepherd" job have been triggered:

Mysterious attribute points: 5 (achieved)

Create and control a bone puppet

"The requirements for the mysterious attribute have been met."

Now all that's left is to create bone golems.

Seeing this, Ansu put away the panel.

Continue working with Shadow Dragon to try and build a bone golem.

At the same time, he was also distracted by using his mysterious attributes and talents related to alchemical pigments to analyze the newly obtained alchemical pigment formula.

Not long after a portion of the information was analyzed and a corresponding degraded version of the pigment was constructed, Ansu's first bone puppet was about to take shape.

...

in the dormitory.

There were various bones scattered all over the ground, each imbued with the aura of the dead.

Ansu immediately tried to infuse his mental energy into it.

The next moment, under the influence of mental power.

Numerous bones rapidly converge, fuse, and transform...

Until half a minute later.

The scattered bones that once littered the ground have transformed into a tiny bony figure the size of a palm.

Seeing that the bones had taken shape, Ansu pondered for a moment.

Then, the command "Do a backflip" was injected into the bone puppet.

The moment it received the instructions and corresponding action information, the bony miniature did not hesitate at all and immediately acted according to the instructions.

However, because the bones that make up the skeletal figures are not of very good quality, they were unable to successfully execute the commands completely.

It had only flipped halfway when it collapsed to the ground with a thud.

"..."

Ansu remained silent for a while.

Then it was taken to the cemetery area of ​​the soul space.

"Since it is a puppet made of bones containing the aura of the dead."

It can probably continue to absorb the aura of the dead.

Perhaps if I absorb enough, I can transform into an undead spirit and be of some use to me.

Not long after I put it into my soul space, the panel notification sounded again.

[A bone puppet has been created and is being manipulated]

[The requirements for the main profession - Bone Shepherd have been met]

[Will you start work immediately?]

"Confirmed employment."

Without the slightest hesitation, Ansu immediately accepted the job.

[Acquire profession - Bone Shepherd]

[Mental Strength +2]

[Obtain the entry - Body of Ten Thousand Bones (Green)]

[Effect: After specifying a bone containing other bloodlines]

It can consume any amount of energy and integrate it into the bloodline of itself and its followers.

(Even if the body of a member does not contain bones, fusion can still be performed.)

After fusion is complete, you will receive the corresponding bonuses from your extraordinary bloodline.

Seeing the new terms appear on the panel, Ansu immediately became somewhat interested.

"This entry...is interesting."

Before this.

Anzu had planned to use the unicorn horn he obtained from the Gravekeeper Knight Ryan to create a new type of alchemical pigment.

This was used to strengthen the Shadow Dragon's horns.

However, since there were quite a few other matters with higher priorities, Ansu temporarily put it aside.

However, it seems that it may not be necessary to construct the unicorn horn as alchemical pigment.

With the help of the entry, it can be integrated into the Shadow Dragon's bloodline.

Thinking of this, Ansu took out the unicorn's horn.

Then, he tentatively selected the Unicorn Horn and the Shadow Dragon, and activated the newly acquired entries.

[Selected Fusion Subject: Familiar - Shadow Dragon]

[Selected fusion material: Unicorn Horn]

Integration progress: 0%

"The unicorn horn is indeed considered a type of bone in the entry 'Body of Ten Thousand Bones (Green)'."

That makes things much easier.

Ansu thought to herself, but did not activate the entry immediately.

After all, it would be too wasteful to use it directly like that.

"Afterwards, we can first prepare some alchemical pigments that can be used on bones."

This will unlock the potential of the unicorn horn, or endow it with greater abilities.

Afterwards, when it merges with the Shadow Dragon's bloodline, or even with mine, it will generate even greater benefits.

Ansu wasn't particularly opposed to modifying his bloodline.

After all, the wizarding world is hardly a benevolent place.

If we don't do everything we can to use all the resources we can gather to enhance our strength...

They might die in some unknown corner, or beg for real death on some wizard's experimental table.

After confirming the purpose of the new term, Ansu looked at the [Occupation] section of the panel.

【Profession - Bone Shepherd】

"The new entry is quite useful."

However, the [Bone Shepherd]'s ability to create bone golems remains rather useless.

Ansu is prepared to stick to its previous plan.

A large number of copies of the "Bonekeeper's Handbook" were made and sold on the black market.

This reduces the etheric concentration inherent in knowledge.

This would consequently reduce the strength of the corresponding wild wizard organizations.

"When you go to the black market, you can also buy some alchemy materials and other extraordinary resources."

Ansu could vaguely sense the modified method of the degraded alchemical pigment derived from the analysis of [Alchemical Pigment - Type 42 Space Color].

However, I don't have enough resources.

Furthermore, Ansu needs to bring the material within his soul's perception range, or touch the material, in order to perceive its exact nature.

This maximizes the use of these materials and applies them to recipes for creating new alchemical materials.

"However, just to be on the safe side, we can't go directly to the black market."

Ansu was unsure whether the wild wizards behind Tistu still harbored ill intentions towards him.

Therefore, I am preparing to do some targeted disguises.

So, in between using the Death Breathing Technique to improve physical attributes and mystical attributes.

Ansu also uses existing materials to create various types of alchemical pigments.

At the same time, new information appeared on the panel:

The bonus effect has been fully realized.

[Main Class - Bone Shepherd]

[Secondary Profession - Mystic Transcendent]

[Bonus Effect 1: After fusing with the 'Affix - Body of Ten Thousand Bones (Green)']

You or your dependents will receive an additional semi-digital boost.

(The specific amplification effect is related to the bones used as fusion materials.)

[Bonus Effect 2: When the bone golems created absorb the aura of the undead, there is a higher probability that they will turn into undead.]

And loyalty is always 100%.

"Once the effects of the transformation are applied to me or my family, it will have an even better effect."

If you have extra energy later, you can also build some bone golems.

Perhaps given enough time, we can even assemble an army of undead.

Ansu made her judgment.

They then continued with the tasks that had not been completed previously.

Before long, relying on a wealth of knowledge and materials related to alchemy pigments...

Ansu has developed a new type of alchemical pigment.

Unable to play a significant role in combat.

However, once applied to masks and robes of specific materials, one can change the corresponding colors and slightly adjust the shape attached to the mask according to one's own wishes.

This results in changes in both clothing and body shape.

In addition, with the help of Shadow Dragon, Ansu copied the job application process for the Bone Shepherd several times.

Moreover, they used different handwriting styles.

After confirming that everything was ready and having gathered some alchemical pigments that could be used in battle through the entries, Ansu did not linger any longer.

They then headed towards the black market of the abandoned laboratory.
