Necromancer Lords are Weak? Watch Me Recruit Fallen Deities! – Chapter 18

Ch 18: Necromancer

It took Xiang Chen a full minute to calm down.

He pulled up his character panel.

After the first trial, his character level had also increased.

【Xiang Chen】

【Level: 16】

【Health: 171】

【Attack: 26】

【Defense: 57】

【Agility: 17】

【Spirit: 523/824】

【Talent: Nether King （God-Tier）】

【Trait 1: Nether Guidance】

【Trait 2: Forbidden Gaze】

【Trait 3: Undead Allegiance】

【Trait 4: Absolute Loyalty】

【Trait 5: Immortal Body】

【Trait 6: Eternal Prayer】

【Trait 7: Eternal Night Soul Summoning】

【Records the soul imprints of the troops under command. After the troops are killed, they can be summoned again from the Nether Realm, retaining one-third of their level and attributes from when they were alive.】

【Trait 8: Undead Rebirth】

【You can transform non-undead troops into undead troops and make them loyal to you.】

“Huh?”

Xiang Chen exclaimed in surprise, when did two new traits appear?!

【Eternal Night Soul Summoning】, can resummon killed troops!

Holy crap!

After the first trial, he lost 23 Skeleton Warriors and 12 Skeleton Archers.

However, he didn’t record the soul imprints of the lost skeleton troops.

How to deal with this?

Could it be that he could only lose his troops for nothing?

Just then, Asuen stepped forward.

“Lord, the General’s Command itself has recorded the soul imprints of all members of the Zhenyuan Legion. You can try to use the General’s Command to cast 【Eternal Night Soul Summoning】.”

Xiang Chen’s eyes lit up.

This was really someone handing him a pillow when he was sleepy.

He took the General’s Command from Asuen’s hand.

“Eternal Night Soul Summoning!”

The token in his hand suddenly lit up with a ray of light.

After a moment.

Small, glowing runes began to surround Xiang Chen.

A group of blurry phantoms gradually appeared in front of him.

The phantoms continued to solidify, becoming skeletons.

However, there was nothing in the eye sockets of the skeletons, filled with deep death energy.

At this time, the runes surrounding Xiang Chen flew out one after another, and respectively drilled into the heads of the skeletons.

Before long, all the reappearing skeleton soldiers had a ghostly green soul fire rekindled in their eye sockets.

Xiang Chen was overjoyed.

The Zhenyuan Legion was once again fully staffed!

Good fellow, now even death can’t threaten these skeleton brats!

Xiang Chen then looked at another trait.

【Undead Rebirth】, can transform non-undead troops into undead troops!

A flash of inspiration flashed through Xiang Chen’s mind.

He instantly had a bold idea!

He clenched his left hand into a fist and slapped the palm of his right hand.

Let’s do it!

He directly took out the 【Mage Tower】 he had just put away from his backpack.

Then he walked to an open space and put it down neatly.

A burst of light flashed suddenly.

A brand new stone circular tower rose from the ground before his eyes.

Mage Tower!

Can recruit Tier 3 Mage Apprentices!

Without hesitation, Xiang Chen shouted:

“Recruit!”

『You have recruited a Tier 3 【Mage Apprentice】, consuming 990 Spirit Crystals!』

“It seems that I still need to spend Spirit Crystals to build barracks and recruit troops normally.”

Xiang Chen thought to himself.

However, this was not important!

After a moment, a Mage Apprentice appeared in front of Xiang Chen.

Wearing a black mage robe, hooded, and holding a wooden simple staff.

Xiang Chen only glanced at it roughly.

Then:

“Undead Rebirth!”

As soon as he finished speaking.

A horrifying scene happened.

A hazy ghostly green light enveloped the Mage Apprentice.

The light blurred his face.

However, Xiang Chen vaguely saw that under the erosion of the power of death, the skin on the mage’s face was peeling off piece by piece.

Then, revealing blood vessels, subcutaneous fat, and muscle texture.

Then, Xiang Chen watched all the flesh rot away!

Leaving only the dense white bones!

The hand of the Mage Apprentice, who was holding the staff tightly, also turned into a dry palm bone and finger bones.

The light lingered for a few breaths, and gradually dissipated.

『You have successfully transformed the 【Mage Apprentice】 into a Tier 3 【Necromancer】!』

『You have bestowed upon it infinite life, and it will be loyal to you forever!』

Success!

Xiang Chen was still a little shocked in his heart.

He looked at the skull of the Necromancer covered by the hood.

In the hollow eye sockets, two clusters of ghostly soul fire floated.

【Necromancer】

【Tier: 3】

【Level: 1】

【Health: 32】

【Magic Attack: 52】

【Defense: 14】

【Agility: 12】

【Spirit: 27】

【Skill 1: Ghostly Fireball】

【Condenses a dark attribute fireball to attack enemies from a distance. Chanting: 2 seconds; Cooldown: 1 second, no consumption.】

【Skill 2: Netherfire Enchantment】

【Enchants the weapons of friendly units within a 5-meter radius with dark and fire attributes, weapons come with dark and fire attribute damage. Effect duration: 5 minutes; Chanting: 3 seconds; Cooldown: 5 seconds; Consumes Spirit: 5】

【Skill 3: Evil Ghost Gnawing】

【Releases 5 Evil Ghost Curses that automatically track enemies. Enemies who are planted with the Evil Ghost Curse will detonate the Evil Ghost Curse after being attacked three times in melee by our units or with a fatal attack, causing explosive damage. Chanting: 5 seconds; Cooldown: 30 seconds; Consumes Spirit: 12】

Xiang Chen widened his eyes in surprise.

The Necromancer’s health and defense were ridiculously low, a complete glass cannon.

However, the magic damage and spirit at Level 1 were higher than other Tier 3 troops.

This was where the mage’s advantage lay.

Mages don’t play melee, of course, they hide behind and chant to unleash big moves!

Therefore.

For Xiang Chen, the most amazing thing was the Necromancer’s skills.

There were actually 3 skills at Level 1!

【Ghostly Fireball】, the most basic attack spell, does not need to consume spirit, takes 2 seconds to chant, and has a 1-second cooldown.

In other words, a fireball can be released every 3 seconds.

After the mage team is formed, the mages can be used as turrets.

The second skill, 【Netherfire Enchantment】, can enchant the weapons of surrounding friendly units!

Fire attribute damage can burn enemies.

Dark attribute damage causes additional damage to all non-light attribute enemies.

It is especially useful for enemies with thick physical defense but no magic resistance or damage reduction!

The third skill, 【Evil Ghost Gnawing】, is the highlight.

Consumes 12 spirit at a time.

The Evil Ghost Curse can automatically seek out enemies, and explode after being attacked three times in melee by our units, or with a fatal blow, causing explosive damage!

Explosive damage is generally equivalent to 2 to 4 times the base damage,

And it is area damage, as long as the enemies are within the explosion radius, they will be affected by the explosion!

This skill is completely used for mages and warriors to cooperate.

When enemies are clustered together, the mage casts curses from behind, and the warriors rush up and slash wildly, detonating, clearing the field.

Perfect!
