The Necromancer is amassing troops like crazy in the apocalypse Chapter 467: 382 s, fourth-order special effects

Chapter 467: 382 chapters, fourth-order special effects

The sudden level up took Wu Heng by surprise.

It was faster than he had anticipated, reaching level 15 directly.

He glanced at the battlefield ahead.

A few more zombies were continuously rushing out from the residential areas on both sides.

But their numbers were no longer formidable.

“Advance, exterminate all zombies!” Wu Heng commanded outright.

...

The skeleton army that had been waiting for orders imdiately sprang into action, brandishing their long spears as they charged towards the incoming horde.

In an instant, weapons cleaved through flesh, and the chilling roars of the zombies rose again.

Wu Heng rapidly issued several orders.

He instructed the mutated skeletons by his side to also charge into the horde.

As he watched the zombies fall one after another, Wu Heng took the opportunity to open his panel and check his attributes.

[Na: Wu Heng]

[Level: 15 (423/195000)]

[Attributes: Strength 40, Agility 30, Constitution 44, Intelligence 39, Perception 25, Charm 28.]

[Feats: … One-handed Sword Specialization (Interdiate), Swordsmanship Specialization (Interdiate), Staff Specialization (Interdiate)… Arcane Training, Knowledge of Souls… Undead Adaptation, Spellcasting Acceleration, Forced Concentration, Master Caster, Tireless Focus.]

[Abilities: Greyhawk Swordsmanship (Beginner), Enhance Will, Soul Sense, Spellcasting Acceleration, Breath of the Wraith, Divine Presence.]

[Skills: Bone Manipulation Skill, … Bone Armored, Corpse Cage, White Bone Transplant, Breath of Death, Animate Object.]

The experience required to level up from 15 to 16 reached 195,000.

That was an increase of thirty thousand from before.

But it seed normal, as the previous levels had increased in the sa manner.

As for the attribute points, this level up added a total of four points to his stats, two in intelligence and one each in constitution and perception.

In the past, leveling up only increased his attributes by two points.

It was uncertain whether it was only at level 15 that attributes would increase by four points or if subsequent levels would follow the sa pattern.

As for the feats and abilities unlocked,

there were more than what ‘Xi Ligui’ had described.

He had gained a total of four new ones.

Wu Heng began to review each one in turn.

[Master Caster]: You wield supre spellcasting abilities, your magic’s potency, casting speed, and duration have all reached master level.

[Tireless Focus]: Under a focused state, the mind and energy will not tire.

[Breath of the Wraith]: Capable of absorbing necromantic and wraith energies, swiftly healing physical injuries and replenishing spiritual power.

[Divine Presence]: Can descend into an attendant’s body, gaining control over it.

A total of four kinds.

[Master Caster] acts as an enhancent for the Mage profession, bringing spell strength and casting speed to master level.

This signifies that there’s now a distinction between him and regular professionals.

All spell-related abilities have reached the standard of a master.

[Tireless Focus] ensures that while focused, the mind and energy will not tire, which corresponds to the ntal exhaustion that cos with studying spells.

Like the Master Caster, it’s an amplification for the Mage profession.

Next is [Breath of the Wraith], which allows absorption of necromantic and wraith energies to heal one’s own injuries and restore spiritual power.

It’s probably because of this feat that Wu Heng can now sense the pervasive necromantic power around him, ready for him to absorb into his own body whenever he wishes.

On the battlefield, it could be used to heal his own wounds.

Even in peaceti, it could be used to restore his spiritual power.

At the very least, he could save money on potions.

The last one, [Divine Presence], is an unlocked ability.

From its description, the effect of Divine Presence is to descend into the body of an attendant and take control.

I didn’t quite understand the aning of it.

My gaze shifted to the area where the battle was taking place in front.

With a thought, I cast “Divine Presence”.

The next second, my consciousness found itself inside a spear-wielding skeleton on the battlefield.

In front of was a zombie with a pierced chest, its teeth bared, frantically clawing at .

Startled, but I soon realized what was happening.

I lifted my foot to push back the lunging zombie, pulled the spear out, and thrust it into the zombie’s mouth once more.

At the sa ti, I was also astonished by the effect of “Divine Presence”.

That it could be used in such a way.

I observed the scene again.

The skeletons’ mode of sensing was different from living creatures seeing images and colors.

Everything around was a gray-white world, and both the zombies and other skeletons appeared as entities of the sa energy shape.

The battle continued.

I decided to end the “Divine Presence” state and regain control of my own body.

“What did you just do?” Glenda asked as she flew down.

I counter-asked, “Is there a problem?”

“It seed like your spirit had disappeared. When Xiao Xiao and I ca over, you were just standing there looking silly,” Glenda said.

That ant during my “Divine Presence” state, my body would remain in a spiritless state.

Xiao Xiao circled around and then said, “Uncle, you seem different, there’s a very comfortable aura about you.”

“Yes, your necromantic aura makes us feel very comfortable,” Glenda added.

As a Necromancer, I naturally emanated Necromantic Power.

After reaching level 15, this aura beca even more intense.

“I have reached level 15 and beco a great Mage. That’s probably why you feel my necromantic aura has beco stronger,” I explained.

Xiao Xiao didn’t understand all these details, but clapped enthusiastically, “Wow, that’s amazing, what’s a great Mage?”

“It ans I’ve been promoted and have beco more powerful,” I explained.

“Oh, uncle is so powerful,” Xiao Xiao repeated.

“You deserve so credit too.”

Glenda’s expression was full of surprise.

She clearly understood what level 15 represented.

When Wu Heng brought her out, he was not even level 10, and now he had quickly advanced to level 15.

Had she followed a human genius?

This matter was even more astonishing than Wu Heng possessing a special world.

Listening to a person and a spirit flattering each other.

Glenda continued to ask, “Did your spirit vanish just now because of that reason as well?”

“Mhmm, it’s an ability of level 15.”

“Use it again,” she requested.

I used the ability again; my body instantly appeared beside Big Head Skull.

Turning back to look at my own body, I saw ‘Glenda’ directly entering it.

Controlling the body, I examined my hands and feet.

Damn, she possessed .

I ended “Divine Presence” in an instant, reclaiming my body’s control, and Glenda flew out again.

“When you leave your body, I can control it,” she said.

“Huh, that can be done too,” I continued to ask, “How does it feel to have a body again?”

“Suddenly feeling the body, it’s a bit uncomfortable.”

“In the future, if there’s a special situation, you guys take control of my body and run first.”

“Sure!”

They chatted on the spot for a while.

The battle ahead was also gradually drawing to a close.

Skeletons began cleaning up the battlefield, and Qi Hancai and others ca over from behind.

They started searching the nearby shops.

…

Wu Heng, however, set his sights on the bodies of several evolved zombies.

He directly cast [Corpse Battlefield], the range of the gray-white circle almost covering the surrounding ten ters.

Broader than before, the skeletons no longer needed to gather the bodies together.

After the light circle passed, the evolved zombies stood up.

Wu Heng found two Corpse Cores among them.

He put them in his Space Ring and continued on his way, casting [Corpse Battlefield], and more skeletons rose up.

Joining the queue at the rear.

While Wu Heng kept casting, the surrounding Breath of Death continuously restored his spiritual power.

It allowed him to maintain frequent use of spells.

After all the skeletons were transford.

Qi Hancai and the others also ca back.

The few survivors were moving bicycles in a bike specialty store.

It seed to be a brand, with all sorts of cycling gear.

“There aren’t many zombies nearby; I’ll arrange for a thorough scavenging tomorrow,” Qi Hancai said.

While speaking, he carefully sized him up and down.

Feeling that sothing was sowhat different from before.

“Yeah, let’s head back,” Wu Heng nodded.

They got into the truck, and after the rest finished transporting bicycles.

The convoy started up again, heading toward the mall.

…

In the mall, in the manager’s office.

Qi Hancai brought over a backpack full of gold and nineteen level one Corpse Cores.

After Wu Heng put them away, he handed her two elixirs and said, “Drink them yourself, don’t tell anyone else.”

Seeing that he had once again given her elixirs.

Joy appeared on Qi Hancai’s face, “Understood.”

Wu Heng said, “Keep an eye on the military; let know if there’s any movent.”

“All right, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first.”

“Sure.”

Qi Hancai left the room.

After Wu Heng put away the items and tidied up briefly, he also opened the boundary door and returned to collect silver and more.

…

Coming out of the study.

He sent the Corpse Cores to the Alchemy Room.

He had Mini prepare bath water and enjoyed a comfortable bath.

Andre Willow also ca back from outside.

Wu Heng said, “There’s no need to prepare dinner; let’s go eat at Shanaila’s place.”

“Master is thinking about Sister Shanaila again, huh!” Mini said playfully.

Wu Heng lightly patted her on the back, “Don’t talk nonsense!”

“Hehe!”

When both maids had also changed, Wu Heng took them out, walking next door.

…

Knock knock knock~!

They knocked lightly on the courtyard door, and the housekeeper opened it.

“Deputy Steward Wu Heng, the two misses,” the housekeeper greeted.

“Yes, is Lady Shanaila in? We’ve co to see her.”

“Please wait a mont.”

Soon after, the main door opened, and the house steward said softly, “Please co in, the Lady is waiting for you in the living room.”

Passing through the courtyard, they entered the building.

They saw Shanaila, dressed in a gorgeous gown, sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Seeing them arrive, she revealed a bright smile, “Here you are!”

“Yes, has the Starflower Caravan been here recently?” Wu Heng asked casually as he sat down next to her.

Shanaila shook her head, “Not so soon; it will approach the port in the next few days.”

“Oh, let know when it does.”

“Sure!” Shanaila continued, “I heard that recently the pirates have started to harass the sailing routes again; is the Association taking any action?”

“The steward is arranging it; there will probably be so plans when the ti cos,” he replied, gazing intently at her exquisite face.

Shanaila’s cheeks turned a bit red, and she glanced at him reproachfully, changing the subject, “Dinner is almost ready; let’s go to the dining room!”

They all stood up and moved towards the dining room.

As they walked, Shanaila said, “I have so precious ingredients here; it’s a good opportunity for you to try them.”

“Yay! I told you coming to Sister Shanaila’s was the right decision,” Mini cheered.

Seated at the dining table, dinner was served.

They began to eat.

Wu Heng asked, “How do you usually verify soone’s level?”

Shanaila glanced at him and explained, “Most of the ti, it’s based on their combat strength and so intelligence. The wanted orders from your Association use this thod.

There’s also a magical item called Detect Level, which is a kind of divination spell. Its function is to help organizations identify the level of individuals they’re recruiting.”

Individual levels are considered private.

In the face of danger, the level can be the key to whether you can defeat an enemy.

The Association does not record specific levels in the archives.

But each person can estimate; a steward is at least level 12, and a deputy steward is at least level 10 or above.

Then, Shanaila smiled at him, “Why, have you leveled up?”

“Just asking.”

They chatted while eating, all enjoying the al.

After dinner, Wu Heng took the two maids and bade farewell to Shanaila.

…

As night fell.

The two maids also went back to their rooms to rest.

Wu Heng stepped out into the courtyard, folded a paper crane, and sent it flying into Shanaila’s lit room.

Shanaila, with her hair down, peered out the window.

Wu Heng pointed at the rooftop; she nodded in response.

Up to the rooftop.

After Shanaila leaped over, she gave a light slap and said, “We just parted, why are you looking for again?”

Wu Heng took her hand and asked, “Do you keep your promises?”

“Huh? Are you saying I don’t?” Shanaila asked with a hint of suspicion.

Wu Heng said quietly, “I’m level 15 now!”

Shanaila’s eyebrows furrowed.

Her eyes slowly widened.
