Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 220: Desolate Immemorial Battlefield; Abyssal Blade Demon Apers Again!

The Immemorial Battlefield wasn't pitch-dark. There was light, coming from an unknown source, casting various colors that swirled and intertwined in the air, eventually forming a unique hue. It was somewhat dim and reddish, reminiscent of the fiery clouds at sunset, but darker.

There were no stars, no sun, no moon. Only this inexplicable light illuminated the earth.

The air was filled with a complex scent.

"There's the smell of blood as well as the scent of souls."

The wind carried sounds—screams, roars, deranged laughter. These were sounds from the previous era, lingering until now.

In Lin Moyu's palm, Soul Blaze ignited and released crackling sounds that soon faded, burning lingering soul intent to nothing.

"This place is strange!" Lin Moyu donned the Bone Armor. He didn't dare to be careless.

The Bone Armor, with its base physique of 3,000 points, coupled with the talent's 40-fold amplification, which equated to a physique of 120,000 points, protected against all abnormal statuses, providing Lin Moyu sufficient security.

Lin Moyu had no idea Meng Anwen had chosen a relatively safe place for him. Meng Anwen deliberately kept this information from Lin Moyu, to prevent him from lowering his guard.

Two Skeletal Warriors appeared next to Lin Moyu, one on either side. He chose a random direction and proceed forward, the reassuring clattering sounds of the skeletons accompanying his steps.

Bai Yiyuan had shown Lin Moyu a simulated map of the battlefield. He also told him that in the Immemorial Battlefield, there were no definite directions. All directions were relative and subject to change from time to time.

Bai Yiyuan hadn't been to the upper layer for many years now and was uncertain of the current changes in the upper layer. In the end, Lin Moyu had no to explore it himself.

The place Meng Anwen had chosen was indeed quite safe.

After walking for a while, Lin Moyu had seen nothing but a few small hills rolling up and down, as well as the vague outlines of tall mountains in the distance.

The light was too dim, limiting visibility to only a couple of hundred meters.

Finally, Lin Moyu encountered a monster wandering aimlessly more than 100 meters away. The monster noticed him as well.

The monster exuded black smoke, looking as if it had just been pulled out of a fire. Its visage bore both human and Demon likeness, with some beastly features added into the mix.

The monster bared its sharp fangs as it looked at Lin Moyu.

"What keen senses."

Lin Moyu willed, and his Skeletal Warriors were about to set out, when all of a sudden, the monster vanished from view.

"Did it run away?"

In the next moment, Lin Moyu's body tensed up. At the same time, the ground silently split beneath him, and a fire burst out.

The Bone Armor glowed, shielding Lin Moyu from the fire.

A dagger with a sharp, cold gleam thrust out from within the fire, then was blocked by the Bone Armor.

When Lin Moyu was attacked, the two Skeletal Warriors, standing on either side of him, reacted instinctively, their soul fire throbbing madly. Two large blades, glowing with faint golden light, slashed toward the monster.

After the Skeletal Warriors reached level 30 and evolved into gold rank, specks of golden radiance reminiscent of starlight appeared on them, sparsely covering their bodies, as well as their large blades.

At this moment, the large blades slashed out at breakneck speed, moving so fast that they left afterimages, shimmering with specks of golden light.

The Skeletal Warriors reacted extremely quickly. From the moment Lin Moyu was attacked to the moment they launched their counterattack, less than 0.5 seconds had passed.

The two blades landed on the monster. The monster let out a miserable shriek and, accompanied by a bang, ruptured into a puff of black smoke.

It died? Lin Moyu was slightly taken aback. Was the monster that fragile, or were the skeletons that strong?

The level 30 Gold Skeletal Warriors, their four attributes had reached 40,000 points. Their attack power was indeed astonishing. However, Lin Moyu still found it unlikely that they could instantly kill this monster.

After all, this was the Immemorial Battlefield, and the monster had shown considerable attack power just now. Moreover, he didn't receive any notification, nor did he gain any EXP.

Another burst of fire erupted from the ground, this time on the other side of Lin Moyu. At the same time, a dagger emerged from the fire and stabbed the Bone Armor with a deafening clang.

Lin Moyu willed, and the Skeletal Warriors struck once more. This time, however, their blades surged with intense light.

Skill: Berserk Strike!

At this time, the strength attribute of the Skeletal Warriors was enhanced by 400%, pushing it to 160,000 points. The Skeletal Warriors broke out with tremendous attack power in an instant.

When the skill was activated, the space itself seemed to distort.

Struck by red light, the monster shrieked again and burst with a bang, disappearing without a trace. Even the fire on the ground vanished.

The entire process was too fast, so fast that Lin Moyu didn't even have time to use Detection.

There was still no notification, indicating that the opponent wasn't dead yet. This was an Assassin-type monster, with weak defense but extremely powerful attack power.

If it were an ordinary level 30 class user instead, or even a though and resilient Knight or Warrior, they would have been severely injured by the surprise attack just now. As for Mage-type or support-type class users, they might have been killed in an instant.

Out of the corner of his eye, Lin Moyu caught a glimpse of a fire. On the left, in front, half a meter away!

In the split second that the fire burst forth, the Skeletal Warriors had already taken action.

At the same time, Detection flew out.

Of the Skeletal Warrior's two blades, one slashed down from above and sliced the fire in half, while the other directly attacked the ground where the fire had spewed out from.

Another shriek rang out, this time without giving the opponent a chance to strike.

[Fire Seared Mist]

[Level: 38]

[Strength: 15,000]

[Agility: 15,000]

[Spirit: 10,000]

[Physique: 10,000]

[Skills: Mistification, Fatal Blow]

[Traits: Physical Damage Reduced by 70%, Elemental Damage Reduced by 30%]

Lin Moyu looked at the monster's properties.

It was called Fire Searing Mist, and it looked like a mass of burnt mist. Not unlike Assassin-type powerhouses, it possessed the Fatal Blow skill, with extremely high instantaneous explosive power. Its strength and agility were both pretty good, though its physique was fairly low.

The key lay in its trait—a whopping 70% reduction in physical damage. This explained how it was able to withstand two attacks from the Skeletal Warriors without dying.

But this time, the Skeletal Warriors' preemptive strike delivered the fatal blow.

[Killed level 38 Fire Seared Mist, EXP +760,000]

The amount of EXP it provided was similar to that of Abyssal Demons, which was in line with its attributes.

However, it was slightly more dangerous than Abyssal Demons. Its surprise attacks and terrifying instantaneous explosive power were enough to give many class users a headache.

After dealing with this monster, Lin Moyu proceeded to move forward. He walked for a while, yet didn't encounter any more monsters

The Immemorial Battlefield was very large, and the closer to the center you were, the more monsters there would be. Conversely, the farther from the center you were, the fewer monsters there would be.

All those who came to the Immemorial Battlefield made judgments based on this fact.

It had been nearly half a day since he arrived at the Immemorial Battlefield, and apart from the Fire Searing Mist he met at the beginning, he hadn't encountered any other monsters.

What Lin Moyu felt was desolation. Apart from the black earth and the undulating hills, there was nothing.

By now, he was sure that he was at the edge, at the very edge of the Immemorial Battlefield.

He changed direction and walked toward another side. After a while, he finally spotted a second monster.

It was over three meters tall, and was entirely made of black rock. As it slowly moved its massive body, its rocky body rubbed against the ground, making scraping sounds.

When Lin Moyu sighted it, it had its back to him.

A flash of light emerged from his fingertip and flew out.

[Black Rock Monster]

[Level: 45]

[Strength: 20,000]

[Agility: 5,000]

[Spirit: 20,000]

[Physique: 30,000]

[Skill: Whirlwind Ball]

[Traits: Physical Damage Reduced by 50%, Elemental Damage Reduced by 70%]

As expected of a level 45 monster, its four attributes combined reached 75,000 points, its strength and spirit each reaching 20,000 points.

The monster's skill was a Mage-type skill, indicating that it possessed both elemental and physical attacks.

While Lin Moyu viewed its properties, the Black Rock Monster had already turned around.

Its massive arm swung up, and a wind ball even larger than Lin Moyu himself whistled toward him.

The Whirlwind Ball moved at an incredible speed, and it collided with Lin Moyu in an extremely explosive manner.

The Bone Armor shone brilliantly, emitting a blazing white light.

With a loud bang, the Whirlwind Ball exploded in front of Lin Moyu. However, protected by the Bone Armor, Lin Moyu remained unscathed.

But, the two Skeletal Warriors next to him were knocked back by several meters. The Whirlwind Ball came with the knockback effect.

The two Skeletal Warriors quickly rushed forward and unleashing their skill, and their large blades struck the Black Rock Monster, producing a sound similar to striking metal.

The stone monster swung its massive arms at the Skeletal Warriors. Not only did its wind ball contain the knockback effect, but even its normal attacks contained the knockback effect.

The Skeletal Warriors were knocked back continuously, only to charge forward again.

With its physique of 30,000 points and the Physical Damage Reduced by 50% trait, it made the monster incredibly tough.

The Skeletal Warriors were constantly being knocked back and were only able to unleash half of their power at most.

Even though the attributes of the two Skeletal Warriors reached 40,000 points, but it would still take them some time to defeat the monster.

Another Whirlwind Ball appeared, slammed into the Skeletal Warriors, and exploded.

With a bang, the two Skeletal Warriors were knocked away. The Skeletal Warrior that was hit head-on, in particular, was knocked away by more than 100 meters.

Lin Moyu willed, and eight more Skeletal Warriors appeared. The ten Skeletal Warriors surrounded the monster and erupted with their skill.

The Black Rock Monster let out a muffled roar, the rocks on its body covered in dense cracks.

Then, the monster burst apart!

[Killed level 45 Black Rock Monster, EXP +1,350,000]

The EXP provided by a level 40 monsters was much higher than that of monsters below level 40. However, there were just too few of them.

"The monsters here seem to have both physical and elemental damage reduction talents."

"I wonder how effective my Damage Curse skill will be against them."

The two monsters, with their vast disparity in level, attested to the chaos and disorder within the Immemorial Battlefield.

"Ke-ke-ke!"

"Human!"

Chilling laughter suddenly echoed through the air.

Lin Moyu looked up and saw an Abyssal Blade Demon with eight arms standing in the air.
