Necro Master

* * *

[You defeated Poison Cobalt.]

[You learned 22 Karma.]

It was the loyalty of defeating Cobalt with the Life Drain. However, his expression was not good. Because the effects of recovery were not good.

‘It's not as efficient as I thought. ’

It was clear that the ranking of the Life Drain was low. It was clearly said that necrotic cells had been recovered, but the effect was marginal. It didn't feel like it was used on a Goblin the other day.

It seemed to have recovered somewhat on the outside, but not on the inside at all. The inside has not fully recovered. Of course, if we continue like this, we will be able to survive.

‘But to do that, we need to constantly supply live cobalt. ’

Eventually, I didn't have time to rest for a little while.

‘Should I rank up my skills? ’

But the loyalty shook his head. I was not good at raising my life drain skills right now. I had to put it up when I had more time in Karma.

‘Definitely a good skill. ’

However, it was not a skill that could be used so effectively right now. The answer was to invest in the skeletons to speed up the hunt. It wouldn't matter if there were 1-2 monsters out there, but there was no guarantee it would continue. If a party monster appears, he or she is currently outnumbered.

However, thanks to the new characteristics, I was not very worried. The reason why life drains don't rank as low was because they believed in their traits.

‘Life drain can be put up later because it has characteristics anyway. ’

Honestly, it was okay to die of poisoning. After he died, he was resurrected as an undead. Of course, I didn't intend to act too recklessly. If you become undead, there were restrictions on using skills. What if he resurrects as undead? I knew I couldn't beat the skeletons. Summoning skeletons was also a method of using skills. So I didn't have to be provocative for no reason.

His character has always been insurance. It's a trick of the spleen in case you don't know.

‘Therefore, it is best to remain human for now. ’

First, we decided to hold out as long as we could. Honestly, raising the rank of your life drain does not guarantee that things will get better.

Somehow, after taking care of Poison Cobalt, he misses his knife and drops it to the ground.

‘Now it looks like the way to get the item was simple. ’

All you had to do was kill the monster and take the item he was holding. It was not a format that could be dropped separately like a game.

That loyalty picks up Cobalt's weapon off the ground.

“Hmm, purple blade. ”

The item was explained to you after you picked up the knife.

[Poison-infused shortcode: A shortcode continuously exposed to the 'Breath of Necrosis’. The poison has been seeping for a long time, so there is a huge amount of poison concentrated on the day. If you are stabbed, you can see yourself rotting rapidly. However, let's use it carefully because its durability is not that high.]

‘ ……? ’

It was a loyalty I hadn't used yet. However, the shortcode from defeating Cobalt does not look bad.

‘No, it's quite extraordinary. ’

This is just the weapon you acquired by defeating Cobalt on the outskirts of the forest. However, no matter how much I thought about it, the bird looked good. This side of the monster that was adapted to the poison won't work. But what if I use it outside of the region?

‘If you hit the target, it will have tremendous effect. ’

I could tell even if I hadn't tried it. You feel good about using the skeletons to deal with Cobalt. It would have been very dangerous if he had gone out there himself. Even if I accidentally cut through Cobalt's shortcode, it might have been game over. Well, it's not really due to traits.

“It's terrible to imagine. ”

It was a good thing he still had skeletons that weren't poisoned.

“By the way, did you say you can sell items back to the autonomous shop? ”

I think I saw it in the gravestone. I wasn't just buying items in the store. I said I could sell it.

I don't know how much it would cost, but it wasn't just too loyal.

‘What a pity there is no inventory. ’

If there were, I would have been more comfortable on the hunt. But it didn't matter. I didn't have an inventory, but I was able to make a porter. It was Marek, the big one, who caught my eye.

Loyalty didn't seem to bother me for a moment. He immediately said to Marek,

“Marek, put this short sword between your four ribs. ”

Did he not understand the order? Or didn't he want to hear it? Marek shows no movement in the commands of loyalty. The gaze of loyalty that was strangely looking at Marek, who was motionless, touched Marek's gaze. Marek's gaze is directed toward a short sword with a strong grip.

“Ah.”

The loyalty of understanding the situation approached Marek. And then we put a shortcode between his ribs. Luckily, the handle was pretty thick, so you don't have to worry about the short thread between the ribs falling to the floor.

‘This way, I can carry a lot. ’

The reason for choosing Marek was simple: There was plenty of room to use because it was big. Particularly, the space between the ribs was perfect for carrying weapons.

Marek became the first weapon display.

“Then shall we go hunting properly? ”

* * *

Skeletons of loyalty were stirring the forest like crazy. Four Poison Cobalt numbers are currently being fought by skeletons. However, it was a number that could be dealt with if it was a little too much. Loyalty and Marek did not participate in the battle. It was Daphne and Raleigh who fought directly.

That's how Devon and Raleigh fought the four Cobalts. Luckily, it was Daphne who succeeded in the first place.

Devon rushes out toward Cobalt in front of him. Four cobalts clumped together, but I didn't see any hesitation. You simply run to them and stab the Von Sword into the nearest Cobalt's abdomen. Before the Cobalts could defend themselves, Teflon made his first strike easy because he didn't give them a chance to fight back.

Phew!

[DEFRON, Soldier of Manpower, inserted the Von Sword into the abdomen of Poison Cobalt.]

Poison Cobalt screams as the Von Sword hits the abdomen.

“Kieeek!”

Poison Cobalt stoops down without any defiance, whether he believes he has no strength to resist or his comrades will save him.

Meanwhile, an intact cobalt tries to attack Defron.

But Raleigh didn't stay still either. When did they cast the skill? Raleigh wields his magic to fight back against Devon. Raleigh's Fire Bolt slams toward Devon's distracted flank.

Swoong!

Cobalt, who was targeted, did not even realize that sharp, hot magic was flying towards him. As a result, he had to simply hand out his flank. Raleigh's correctly twisted fire bolts pierce his skin.

Puck!

[Railey hits Poison Cobalt's flank with a fire bolt.]

Of course, the burning of the twisted fire bolt was a bonus.

Shhhhhhh!

The cobalt that rolled around the floor when the fire started.

“Kieeek!”

It was quick to disable the two Cobalts. I didn't kill him, of course, but I didn't have to go to all that trouble to kill him. It was loyal to the finishing of the cobalts. That's why Daphne no longer cares about the prey that succeeded in the attack. I immediately turned my head and headed towards Cobalt.

[Dementor Defron moves toward the next target.]

But two intact Cobalts could not stand idly by. The first to strike was two Cobalts. They have their own weapons in their hands. The long and short shortsword swoop towards Defron at the same time.

At the same time, Daphne is unable to defend herself against the weapon. Cobalts attack from both sides. Thus, there is no room to avoid. But Daphne didn't even try to stop the weapon. Rather, he aimed at the cobalt on the right. Of course, it was Daphne who was first.

[Poison Cobalt crushed the right femur of Dementor Defron.]]

[Poison Cobalt broke the left clavicle of Dementor Defron.]]

But Daphne was also not so easily beaten. Successful attack in a state of flurry.

[Depron, the Dementor of Mansions, stabbed the groin of Poison Cobalt with the Von Sword.]

It was Devon who gave up the bones and took the flesh. However, it was Cobalt who suffered the damage. Unlike over there, there was Marek.

[Marek uses' Death Healing 'on Dementor Defron.]

[The broken part of the [Soldier Devon of Mangroves > will be repaired.]

It was only a matter of time before the three cobalts were neutralized. In the end, there was only one intact cobalt. Devon recovers momentarily, smiling at the remaining cobalt.

GelGelGelgel.

Then I slowly approached him. To neutralize the last one.

* * *

Loyalty was busy running around. This is because skeletons who have become accustomed to teaming up are faster at hunting. Marek's contribution was great. Marek recovers upon seeing Daphne's injuries, speeding up the hunt.

More and more cobalt appeared in the middle of the forest. There were only seven cobalt numbers lying around the crucible. In the process, there was a moment when Daphne was almost summoned once, but fortunately, she was able to overcome it.

After all, loyalty was busy finishing off the combat powerless cobalt. Skeletons only guard their surroundings so that their loyalty can safely use their skills.

In doing so, under the protection of the skeletons, loyalty used the skill towards the last remaining cobalt.

“Life Drain! ”

[Absorbs the life force of Poison Cobalt.]]

[Cells destroyed by 'Breath of Necrosis’ are gradually recovered.]

It was quick to drain Cobalt's life force.

[You defeated Poison Cobalt.]

[19Karma acquired.]

It is difficult to calculate how many cobalt you have defeated so far. About 50 of them seemed to have been dealt with. The loyalty of defeating the last cobalt picks up items from them. All I got out of this place was weapons. Of course, their value was never cheap. I contacted Camila in the middle, and she was the only one who found the right weapon. It's because there were no monsters equipped with weapons where the others were headed.

[Old Poison's Longsword: Shoddy Longsword made of poisoned minerals. However, it cannot be underestimated. Inflicts a Status Effect "Tetanus" and "Poison" on the target after successful attack.]

After all, the loyalty gave the Longsword to Marek. Marek's back suddenly had a sharp fork with a twig and cobalt tendon. The fork holds a huge number of weapons, but Marek does not struggle and carries them with him. My back was stretched with loyalty, which roughly sums up the situation.

“How many Karmas are there, by the way? Status window.”

Taking a look at the status window, Karma's holdings were as follows:

[Karma Owns: 1,970]

You've gathered quite a lot of Karma. You can improve Skeleton Skill by gathering about 30 more. However, loyalty has decided to level up to its current Karma.

‘We can't go to the middle of the forest at this level. ’

Even with the recovery of the Cobalt, it's too much to withstand the effects of the poison getting stronger in level two. I had to level up anyway. Due to this, loyalty has decided to level up.

“Use Karma to level up. ”

The system of loyalty immediately embarked on the work.

[Consume 1,000 Carma to level up.]

[You have reached level 3.]

Level: 3 (2,000 karma required until next level).

As you level up, your heart breaks open. However, it was not entirely easy to withstand the breath of necrosis, but at level 2, if it seemed like oxygen was breathing in a sparse high mountain range, it felt like it was breathing in a hot boiling room now. Anyway, it didn't change that it was getting better.

But there was still work to be done. It's because the system has been pushing for Devon's growth.

[Daphne's proficiency has reached 100%.]

[You can grant Daphne a new ability.]

[Would you like to take a look at the list of capabilities you can assign?]

Loyalty nods because you've done everything you need to do roughly.

“Show me.”

The system then listed the ability of loyalty to choose.

[Please select your preferred option.]

[Skeleton Advocate: Daphne summons 2 more Skeleton Infantries using the corpses around her. The Summoner's maximum summons are not affected. However, the Skeleton Infantry to be summoned is an unnamed Skeleton and cannot acquire skill.]

[Thick Armor: Summoned with heavy armor to replenish poor defense strength.]

[Heavy Strike: Strikes the enemy hard. A chance to stun the target.]

[: …….]

There were many types of options. However, the concern of loyalty was not long.

The addition of heavy armor or other equipment items was excluded from the list. We just have to give them what we got while we were hunting. And frankly, giving Teflon skills related to attack or defense doesn't really make a difference right now. But it was clear that the more skeletons there were, the better.

“The quantity is the truth. ”

A determined loyalty told the system.

“Choose Skeleton Promotion. ”

Then the system informed us of Devon's growth.

[Daphne's Skill Rank has increased.]

[Current DEFRON Skill: Class E]

[Daphne's status rises from 'Skeleton Soldier’ to ‘Skeleton Promotion’.]

[Daphne gains command.]

[Demeron's infantry needs a corpse. You cannot summon a corpse if there is no corpse nearby.]

But there were plenty of dead Cobalts around. Two nearby corpses of Cobalt begin to twist.

[2 Unnamed infantry units are created on Daphne's call.]

The corpses of the twisted cobalts were reassembled with a constant sound.

Shut up. Shut up.

And then Skeleton II, which soon resembles Devon. So a new Phase 2 Skeleton Infantry was completed. Two skeletons made of monster corpses stand side by side with Daphne.

< Skeleton Infantry 1 >

< Skeleton Infantry 2 >

In addition, I was able to confirm that Daphne's name had changed.

< Skeleton Promoter Debron >

In the end, the number of skeletons that were capable of being loyal was five. I just upgraded Daphne's Skill Grade, and I can't believe I'm getting this amazing ability.

“I must improve the skill level of the skeletons as well. ”

If so, he had no choice but to roll the skeletons harder behind him than he did in battle. I never imagined that an increase in skill level would grant such a good ability.

But it was also a moment of joy.

Because the system has been delivering some surprising news.

[The owner of the forest who was sleeping in the death of Poison Cobalts has awoken.]

[Arachne is the owner of the forest.]

[Arachne is angry with you for slaughtering her prey.]

[In one minute, the poisonous Arachne arrives at the challenger, Lee Chong-ryul.]]

You didn't come all the way to the center of the Forest of Poison Fog. But the owner of the forest woke up.

‘Oh my……. ’

I didn't have time to make a comeback. I had to prepare for him before Arachne arrived.
