Chapter 152: Advancement Successful, Level Soars!
Translator: Lonelytree
At this moment, the perverted zombie jumped up from the ground and bit Matthew.
Matthew did not even blink.
In the next second.
His body expanded rapidly and instantly turned into a Moon Bear. Then, he slapped down!
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The Moon Bear slapped the zombie three times in a row, turning its sturdy chest into pieces of meat!
Then, he twisted his palms around the other party’s neck.
The head of the perverted zombie was chopped off by Matthew.
Ding!
It was the sound of a nameplate falling to the ground.
Matthew kicked the zombie’s head away and slowly turned back.
In the next moment.
He bent down and picked up the nameplate. It was written on it-
[This zombie is a pervert. Don’t get close to it.]
“A very timely reminder.”
Matthew smiled helplessly.
At this moment, Bobo, who was watching from a distance, bounced over.
“What a unique night. Although I didn’t see what I wanted to see, it still left a deep impression on me.
“I have a question.”
Matthew said, “Shoot.”
“So are the Headless Horseman and the Flying Ghost Head together?”
Bobo raised her head, her eyes filled with curiosity.
“No.” Matthew replied.
“Why?”
Bobo looked a little disappointed.
“Because the Headless Horseman has no head, and the Flying Ghost Head has no body. When they meet, they will only brush past each other forever, unless they are sewn together just like how the Abomination suggested.”
Matthew smiled and replied, “Of course, I made everything up. If undead still crave love, their soul fire must be seriously ill.”
[Prompt: You have completed the advancement ritual: Night of the Undead.
You have obtained the Advanced Profession: Advanced Necromancer. Since the Advanced Necromancer and the basic Necromancer were of the same origin, the former would be used to replace the latter. [Please distribute the experience points!]
Your level has increased from LV8 to LV12!
[Your attributes have increased: Intelligence +1, Intuition +1.]
Your contract slot +2;
You have obtained the class characteristic of an Advanced Necromancer, “Soul Projection”.
You have obtained new abilities,” Tombstone Crafting ” and ” Death Shock
Wave
Your ability, Rotten Sac Mastery, has been upgraded to Rotten Sac Control.
Due to your outstanding performance in the Night of the Undead, you will receive the following additional rewards:
Your affinity with negative energy has increased slightly.
You will receive a new Undead Summon (Random/Rank 3 – 4)! ]
A large amount of XP was consumed, and Matthew’s level also soared.
Jumping from the peak of Tier 2 to the peak of Tier 3 in one breath, his strength instantly rose by a level.
The first thing he saw immediately was the increase in his attributes. The additional Intelligence would help him learn spells faster and cast spells better.
Perception was exactly the attribute that Druids needed. It could make people more sensitive and could detect things that ordinary people could not. At the same time, it could also improve the effect of shape-shifting form.
In terms of characteristics and abilities.
A high-level Necromancer would usually obtain one of the four main spells.
They were ” Army Summon “,” Withering Halo Teeth Stone “, and ” Soul
Projection ‘
The Army Summoning Technique could increase the upper limit of the summoned creatures by about two or three times.
The Withering Halo gave the undead an effect similar to Withering Light, but its overall performance was worse than the latter.
The Teeth Stone was a relatively good skill. It was a stone condensed by a necromancer’s own mana and negative energy. It could greatly increase the owner’s goodwill with the Blood Race.
Most of the necromancers who had obtained the Teeth Stone had embarked on the road to success. After all, the Blood Race was one of the few undead who had strong individual combat strength, high intelligence and knew how to cooperate.
However, these three skills dimmed in front of Soul Projection.
[Soul Projection: Your soul can leave your physical body, and your physical body will enter a state of absent-mindedness. In this state, you will obtain the following special properties.
[Your soul can travel to the nearby world at twice the speed of walking. You will also gain the ability to see through walls and become invisible to mortals.]
[Both your soul and body gain high resistance against physical damage such as slashes and stabs.]
[You can cast a spell in your soul state without the casting action and medium. When the spell is a necromancy spell, you will also gain the ability to cast without materials.]
[You can try to possess any target, but it’s best if it’s an inanimate object. When the soul is not strong enough, any possession of a living thing can be considered to be a suicidal move.]
[When your soul leaves your body, you will continue to consume your soul energy unless you can return to your body to rest.]
[You can also create some containers that can hold souls and place them around your body as a resting place.]
[However, no matter what, your soul projection time cannot exceed one hour, and the maximum distance cannot exceed 70 meters from your physical body.]
[After using the Trembling Form, you have to return to your physical body in three minutes at most. Otherwise, there is a risk of not being able to return.]
Despite all the limitations, Soul Projection was still one of the most powerful characteristics that a high-level Necromancer could master.
Matthew didn’t know if it was his good luck or if his performance in the Night of the Undead was too good.
This spell was ridiculously powerful whether it was used for reconnaissance, fighting, or scheming.
The only spell that could have a similar effect was the Level 12 ” Magic Soul Pot ” of the same level, but the effect of the Magic Soul Pot was less than one-fifth of the effect of Soul Projection.
Therefore, Matthew was quite satisfied.
Moreover, the two new abilities were not bad.
[Tombstone Crafting: You can create tombstones for the undead to rest on. Near the tombstones, they can recover faster, absorb negative energy better, and greatly increase their potential loyalty.]
[Undead who rest near the gravestone for a long time will have a lower chance of becoming an elite version of themselves.]
[You can also detonate the gravestone. The latter can be regarded as a unit that can satisfy the conditions of “The Last Dance” and “Corpse Explosion” at the same time.]
[ Death Shock Wave: You can launch a terrifying negative energy blast wave in a huge fan-shaped area. The blast wave has a powerful knockback and shock effect.]
[Enemies hit by the shockvvave will suffer a ” Heavy Injury Trigger”. If the trigger is successful, at least half of their HP will be sucked away.]
[Even if the trigger failed, the person hit by the shock wave would still lose about one-fifth of his health.]
[Can be used twice a day.]
One of these two abilities was a support ability that could improve the treatment of the undead.
The other was a rare AOE skill.
The range damage provided by the shockwave had always been what Matthew lacked.
The spells of the School of Necromancy were extremely complicated, but negative energy had always been known for point-to-point explosions, and there were few AOE.
This ability greatly made up for Matthew’s shortcomings.
His mood became happier.
“At least I didn’t waste a night of talking!”
The secondary profession of Envoy of Equilibrium and the advancement of the high-level Necromancer had greatly increased Matthew’s strength.
He believed that as long as he was given some time to familiarize himself with his abilities, he could easily kill many Tier 4 enemies, even with his Tier 3 body.
After all, in this world, level was only ranked at the end of the five major elements of strength.
The other four elements in Matthew’s mind were ranked as follows:
Domain, Network, Equipment (including items), Ability.
The Domain was the most important. It was the sprout of the Legendary Path and the key to the truth of the world. It could also be of great help in a fight. His connections came second. In Matthew’s opinion, a problem that could be
solved by persuading and convincing people was not a problem.
Equipment and items represented wealth, and money could actually solve many problems.
Lorraine was a living example.
As for ability and level, they were the least important.
He roughly skimmed through the detailed descriptions of the various enhancements.
Matthew’s mood gradually became perturbed.
Next.
It was a moment that challenged Matthew’s luck!
[Hint: Do you wish to summon a new undead contracted creature?]
[The summoning is taking effect. Please wait…]
