Chapter 59: Chapter 59: Necromancy Element Tier 8 Evolution! Infinite Growth!
Lin Yi looked through the eight skills in turn, and immediately grasped the characteristics of the entire Necromancy Element skill set.
The design characteristics of the Necromancy Element skill set, compared to other elements, are also very distinct.
First of all, from Tier One to Tier Eight, there are a total of five summoning spells.
Ranging from the most ordinary Skeleton Soldier to the Calamity Monarch, it covers a very wide range.
So the characteristic of the Necromancy Element is having large numbers!
Lots of people fighting against fewer, everyone dares to fight!
And even the lowest-level Skeleton Soldiers have an unbeatable advantage compared to other summoned creatures.
That is, they have no thoughts or intelligence.
They only know to act according to orders.
Naturally, they will have no excess fear or hesitation!
A summoning creature that is fearless, unaffected by psychology, and can exert full combat power 100%, this is the terror of the Calamity Legion!
What caught Lin Yi’s attention were mainly three skills.
First is the Tier Five skill [Rune Enchantment].
[Rune Enchantment]
[Type: Active Skill]
[Tier: Five]
[System: Necromancy Element]
[Consumption: 8000 Mana]
[Chanting Time: None]
[Cooldown Time: None]
[Effect: Study the power of Necromancy Rune, infusing a weapon with a unique necromancy enchantment effect.]
[Blood Rune: Enchant a melee weapon, giving it the effect: when an attack hits, convert 5% of the damage into life recovery for you.]
[Plague Rune: Enchant a ranged weapon, giving it the effect: when an attack hits, there is a 60% chance to inflict the target with a Calamity Plague state, causing the target to lose 0.5% of their maximum life per second for 10 seconds. This effect can stack up to 10 times but is weakened against higher tier enemies.]
[Curse Rune: Enchant any type of weapon, giving it the effect: when an attack hits, there is a 10% chance to inflict any of the following abnormal states on the target: Weakness Curse, Fatigue Curse, Blinding Curse, Throat-Squeezing Curse, Brittle Curse.]
[Weakness Curse: Reduces the target’s all attribute values by 10%, movement speed by 25%.]
[Fatigue Curse: Increases the consumption of all the target’s skill casting by 50%.]
[Blinding Curse: Reduces the hit rate of the target’s attacks by 15%.]
[Throat-Squeezing Curse: Increases the chanting time of all the target’s skills by 30%.]
[Brittle Curse: Weakens the target’s armor value and magic resistance by 20%, increases all damage received by 10%.]
[Note: This enchanting effect is exclusive and can be stacked with regular enchantment effects. The duration of the three rune enchantment effects above is 72 hours.]
These three enchantment effects are very practical.
Not to mention anything else.
If Lin Yi wanted to make money in the future, he wouldn’t even need to hunt monsters and sell goods.
Just setting up a small enchantment stall in the market square.
I bet it would attract a lot of attention.
One enchantment, effective for three days, charging you fifty-eight thousand eight hundred is quite reasonable, right?
Besides this skill which could provide Lin Yi with another source of income in the future, the Tier Seven [Corpse Explosion Skill] is also frighteningly powerful.
[Corpse Explosion Skill]
[Type: Active Skill]
[Tier: Seven]
[System: Necromancy Element]
[Consumption: 10% maximum Life Value]
[Chanting Time: Instant]
[Cooldown Time: None]
[Effect: Detonate a corpse, causing dark attribute damage equal to 20% of the corpse’s original maximum Life Value to all targets within a large area around the corpse.]
[If there are other corpses within the explode area, it will trigger a chain reaction, causing all corpses in the range to explode in succession, again causing 20% of the corpse’s original maximum Life Value dark attribute damage.]
[Note: Good corpses should not be wasted, bad corpses should not be spared.]
This skill is very sinister.
First of all, it does not consume Mana.
But Lin Yi’s own maximum life instead.
Using Corpse Explosion Skill once costs 10% of life.
And the hidden condition for casting it is that there must be a corpse available.
However, the skill effect is very powerful.
Detonating a corpse causes damage equal to a certain percentage of the corpse’s maximum life to monsters within the area.
And it also triggers a chain reaction.
For those who particularly like to summon small monsters.
Like combinations such as the Goblin King and Personal Guard, as long as you kill a few elite Goblins from the Personal Guard, then use Corpse Explosion Skill, it can even blow up other Goblin Royal Guards.
Then the Goblin Personal Guards who got blown up also become corpses, the chain explosions continue.
In the end, the Goblin King protected in the center could very well be killed by his most loyal subordinates...
As for the last skill note.
It’s like a hellish joke.
Good corpses shouldn’t be wasted, suggesting using the Tier Four spell [Resurrection of the Dead] on decent corpses, bringing them back as summons, right?
Bad corpses should just be blown up, leaving nothing behind...!
Finally, the Tier Eight skill [Summon: Undead Monarch], this one is even more major.
The skill description is very simple.
There’s only one, summon the Undead Monarch to fight for you.
Without actual use, you don’t know how strong it truly is.
After looking over these eight skills.
Lin Yi glanced at the forbidden curse name for the Necromancy Element.
[Skill points required to upgrade to the next tier: 1,000,000]
[Forbidden Curse: Nether River Funeral]
Just from the name, it sounds ominous.
Then Lin Yi looked at the mutated version of this Tier Eight Necromancy Element skill.
[Skill points required to evolve this skill: 500,000]
[Currency required to evolve this skill: 1,000,000 Xia currency]
[Evolved Skill: Summon: Calamity Monarch!]
Unlike advancing a forbidden curse, in the tier upgrade skill preview, Lin Yi can only see the name of the next tier skill, but cannot view the specific effects.
But Lin Yi already obtained the Tier Eight skills of the Necromancy Element.
Naturally, he can view what the evolved Tier Eight skill specifically does.
[Command Calamity, Undead Monarch]
[Type: Active Skill]
[Tier: Eight]
[System: Necromancy Element]
[Consumption: 99999 Mana]
[Chanting Time: 180 seconds]
[Cooldown Time: Permanent]
[Passive Effect: With supreme authority, command all undead creatures at Duke tier or below, with no upper limit on quantity.]
[You acquire a 10,000 cubic meter Undead Summoning Space, where all undead creatures under your command will recuperate, and as your mastery and specialization of this skill increase, this space will continue to expand.]
[Your Tier Four skill: Resurrection of the Dead has evolved! Now you can choose any deceased creature at or below Duke tier, infuse it with necromantic energy, making it your summon. This summon retains a certain percentage of its attributes and all skills from when it was alive.]
[Active Effect: Summon the true Monarch of the Calamity Legion to descend upon the world, this summon is entirely obedient to you, and once the summon dies, this skill will permanently fail.]
[The initial level of this summon is: LV.1, initial tier is: Lord tier, when carrying this summon into battles, the experience gained from killing monsters will be distributed to this summon according to the percentage you set.]
[This summon initially possesses a black iron tier scalable weapon: Elegy of the Soul]
[Upon killing monsters, Elegy of the Soul will harvest a certain percentage of the monster’s Life Value, Mana Value, four basic attributes, and add it to the weapon’s base attributes.]
[As this summon levels up and completes tier upgrades, it will unlock new active and passive skills.]
[Remark: My child, on the day you were born, the whole world whispered your name.]
Lin Yi was dumbfounded.
Damn, this definitely requires having a Witch Demon King!
And it’s infinitely scalable!
