Zi Liyuan: MMP… 凸(艹皿艹)凸!
Looking at the list of treasures and their exchange conditions, which were all [Heart of the Lord], a surge of frustration rushed straight to his skull. He almost had a high blood pressure episode, which could’ve ruptured a blood vessel and killed him on the spot.
Dragon Academy, you are really a dog, just waiting for me to fall into this trap!
Especially those ten key items, it’s bad enough they have a clear price tag, but it explicitly states they are only available through Dragon Academy, which made his eye twitch uncontrollably.
This academy is truly shameless when it comes to ripping off students!
No shame at all!
But just thinking about the power of “Undead Calamity” got Lord Zi all fired up again.
Strong! It’s just too powerful!
“Undead Calamity,” this Grand Curse, is not about simply resurrecting the undead buried under the earth, but about resurrecting and enhancing them!
Ordinary resurrected undead would at least evolve into a hero template, and resurrected undead bosses would be at the lowest a hero boss template, with the highest being a Legendary BOSS!
And the coverage of this Grand Curse is equally terrifying. It extends to an area amplified a hundred times the range of the caster’s spirit!
To cast “Undead Calamity,” you need a minimum of 10,000 points of Soul Value. With a hundredfold increase, that’s 1,000,000 meters, equivalent to a coverage of 1,000 kilometers!
Horror, this is absolute super horror!
No wonder all the countries on Blue Star have banded together to oppose, block, and restrict necromancers from producing this thing.
It truly can enable one person to wipe out a nation!
Of course, the nation that gets wiped out isn’t a superpower like the Great Xia Empire.
There really was a country, as shown in the video, that was eradicated by a necromancer using this Grand Curse.
It’s because of this national extinction caused by that necromancer that all necromancers on Blue Star are targeted and restricted.
“Damn this academy, looks like there’s no way to avoid a major bloodletting this time,” muttered someone who couldn’t resist the temptation, bitterly. Then he opened his Spatial Backpack and glanced at the almost two thousand [Heart of the Lord] inside.
Out of these, 150 had to be handed over to the military, while the rest were extra earnings acquired thanks to his lucky goddess of a wife.
Actually, in Zi Liyuan’s eyes, the items needed on the “Undead Calamity” list were just so-so. To exchange for everything wouldn’t even use up 1,000 [Heart of the Lord].
But if he were to exchange for them, it would expose his scheme of bilking the military.
While that wouldn’t necessarily lead to hostilities with the Great Xia Empire officials, it would certainly leave an impression of insatiable greed.
After that, trading with the military wouldn’t be so simple anymore. Any semblance of trust that had been built between them would be completely destroyed.
Worse, from then on, the military might treat him as nothing more than a tool and block him from many special resources.
“Troublesome, looks like I can only offload these bit by bit for now, and use the large amount of [Heart of the Lord] in my hands to strengthen my own power,” he concluded.
Zi Liyuan had already asked Daris, and the Bone Dragons could also use [Heart of the Lord] for evolution, although they needed even more of them.
For instance, two [Heart of the Lord] could evolve a Bone Dragon into a Spectral Dragon Lord BOSS, provided that the Bone Dragon was of a BOSS template, even a rare BOSS template would do.
Twenty [Heart of the Lord] could turn a Spectral Dragon into a Spectral Dragon King, an Epic BOSS.
Compared to Giant Dragons, Bone Dragons might lack depth in terms of heritage, but they too were high-tier creatures in life and thus could also utilize [Heart of the Lord] to advance their life order.
Unfortunately, he had only four Bone Dragon Lord BOSSes, and merely fifty BOSS-template Bone Dragons. Even after using [Heart of the Lord] for evolution, he would only get 54 Spectral Dragon Kings, which are epic BOSSes.
He hadn’t dealt with the Spectral Dragon Kings yet. However, he had used [Heart of the Lord] to evolve all his Bone Dragon BOSSes into Spectral Dragon BOSSes.
54 purebred Spectral Dragon Lord BOSSes, once they activate their Reprint Skill, would be equivalent to 378 Spectral Dragons. This structured BOSS legion could definitely dominate the skies, helping Lord Zi maintain air supremacy.
This wave of evolutions for the Bone Dragon Boss Team had cost 108 [Heart of the Lord], and only someone as wealthy and extravagant as this would be so wasteful. Any other Necromancer wouldn’t spend [Heart of the Lord] so rashly and brutally.
Because compared to Bone Dragon Bosses, Necromancers can create even more powerful undead creatures, there’s absolutely no need to waste precious [Heart of the Lord] on Bone Dragons.
In the training ground beneath the manor, Zi Liyuan looked at the Spectral Dragon Lord BOSS Legion, pulled out the one he liked most, and without hesitation, made it swallow 20 [Heart of the Lord].
The terrifying soulful roar of the Spectral Dragon reverberated back and forth in this space, causing all beings’ spirits to slightly tremble at this moment.
However, the soulful roar didn’t last long, as the Spectral Dragon, which was originally over ten meters tall and over twenty meters long, began to swell up continuously.
The grey-white skeleton turned into a silvery-white color, even emitting a white metallic luster, looking very sturdy.
As it grew in size, the Spectral Dragon quickly inflated to thirty meters in height and over fifty meters in length, its bones turning as sharp as blades, becoming incredibly lethal.
The Spectral Dragon King, with bones like blades, could be said to be armed to the teeth.
That wasn’t all, a faint grey-white mist enveloped the bones of the Spectral Dragon King, serving not only as a protective layer but also as a curse—the Aging Curse!
The Spectral Dragon’s success rate with the Aging Curse wasn’t high, not even close to ten percent.
But after evolving into the Spectral Dragon King, enshrouded in grey-white mist, any being that came into contact with this mist would be afflicted by the Aging Curse with absolute certainty!
Meaning, if the Spectral Dragon was considered bottom tier among all fourth-order ultimate breeds, then the Spectral Dragon King had leaped into the forefront.
The reason it didn’t make it to the very top was that the Spectral Dragon King was biased towards physical damage, with its magical side being quite weak, barely able to cast a few undead spells, its only highlight being the Aging Curse.
It could be said that it was only with the effect of the Aging Curse that it could rise mightily.
The Spectral Dragon King was still quite powerful, but when Zi Liyuan checked its skills, his expression collapsed instantly.
Because the Reprint Skill had turned grey, which meant that this skill could no longer be used.
In other words, after evolving into a Spectral Dragon King, this Epic Boss could no longer replicate itself into six avatars.
The value comparison between one Epic Boss and seven Lord Bosses is, of course, the former is more cost-effective and of higher value.
However, the uselessness of the Reprint Skill disrupted Zi Liyuan’s original plan.
“Indeed, dreams are full, but reality is harsh. Otherwise, just by relying on the Spectral Dragon King Legion, I would have the confidence to sweep through the fourth-order Lord level promotion tasks,” he lamented.
The Necromancer Boss was very powerful, and the 16 random Epic Bosses were equally terrifying, also accompanied by a large group of Undead Lord Bosses.
But Lord Zi’s summoned creatures were also limited, and a battle between undead legions wouldn’t be quickly decided.
Most of the time, it’s all about dealing with the person creating the undead to end the battle.
What troubled Zi Liyuan was that the Necromancer Boss had a staggering 50 million hit points, along with various life-saving measures. Trying to defeat the boss swiftly by targeting the leader was nearly impossible.
But if it came to a war of attrition, the disadvantages were all on Zi Liyuan’s side, so the battle had to be ended quickly.
One could say that the battle creed of the fourth-order Lord conversion tasks was to use all kinds of life-saving cards to cling to life.
Then send out even more and stronger Epic Bosses to charge into the ranks of the undead army, staging a feat akin to cutting through troops to decapitate the enemy general!
Survive!
Strike down the general!
It’s that simple, yet few could pass through.
The power in Zi Liyuan’s hands, if fully unleashed, could easily perform the act of slaying the enemy general amidst the army without any issues.
But surviving—that was the part he couldn’t quite manage yet. Although he intended to prepare many life-saving tricks, most of them relied on smashing scrolls.
Unfortunately, these scrolls could only shield a few hundred thousand points of damage, definitely not enough to block the big moves thrown out by the fourth-order Necromancer Boss.
