Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

"Clang clang," a harsh metallic grinding noise filled the air as sparks flew in all directions.

Lao Tie stood in front of the two, using his steel body to tough out the Spider Monster's two large scythes slicing down.

"-996" "-965" "-398" "-386"

A series of four damage numbers sprang up almost simultaneously, the first two floated above Lao Tie's head, and the latter two sprouted from the Spider Monster's crown.

Clearly, the beast had broken through Lao Tie's physical resistance, causing almost a thousand damage, but at the same time, it suffered from the backlash of the attack, with Lao Tie reflecting 40% of the damage back at it.

"Lao Tie, first snap off those six spider legs of this creature for me!"

Think you're big, huh?

Let's see how you can move fast when your legs are dismantled!

Zi Liyuan had truly been taken aback just now; when they burst into the blood-red barrier and saw such a massive Spider Monster, they were hundreds of meters apart.

But in the blink of an eye, the beast was upon them, flashing its two large scythes, ready to cleave them at the waist.

You think you're fast because of your six spider legs? Well, let's break them first!

Lao Tie wasted no words – he charged and went straight to work. His huge metallic palm, now clenched into an iron fist as large as a pot, grabbed a spider leg and started crazily pounding on the joint.

At the same time, Zi Liyuan dragged Shen Yurou back dozens of meters, then summoned a large group of Shield Combat Skeletons to encircle and protect them.

Inside the blood-red barrier, danger lurked everywhere, with countless monster bosses in every direction. With Lao Tie entangled with the Boss, their defensive power had dropped to rock bottom, and if a Second Order Lord Boss charged out, the threat would be enormous.

But as fate would have it, less than a minute passed before seven or eight First Order Lord Bosses surrounded them, all driven by human command!

"A Second Order Necromancer? Perfect! Capture him and present him to the Queen, she will be beyond pleased!"

Facing the will of the Evil God directly, the chances of those with death-related professions being bewitched and falling to darkness were terribly high.

Just capture this Necromancer, turn him via persuasion, have him infiltrate their ranks, and capturing Number Two will become much easier.

"Damn, a traitor?"

Beyond the Bosses blocking the way, Zi Liyuan caught sight of a human shrouded in black robes.

"Damn you, traitor! Your whole family are the traitors!"

"Figures it'd be the despicable dogs from Sakura Country, no wonder you'd resort to such treacherous acts."

Zi Liyuan's expression revealed sudden understanding; indeed, those capable of summoning the Evil God and plotting to use Great Xia Empire's examination students as sacrifices had to be these foreign bastards.

"Dammit! How dare you insult Sakura Country, you're a dead man! I'll flay you alive and light your soul on a sky lantern! Attack, remove his limbs first!"

Number Seven raged, bellowing out an order, and the nearby horde of First Order Lord Bosses, their eyes blood-red with fury, charged towards Zi Liyuan.

"The treacherous scum, wants to dismember me? Do they think I'm made of clay, to be played with at will?"

Zi Liyuan felt insulted and ignition welled up from the depths of his heart, his eyes piercing with intent to kill.

With a "bang", Shen Yurou, who stood by his side, didn't hesitate to pull out a sniper rifle, instantly aiming and locking onto the treacherous scum's head. Pulling the trigger, the bullet left the chamber and flew a hundred meters in an instant, piercing the scum's left eye and into the brain with deadly accuracy.

There was no blood gushing, no brain splatter, and no chunks of flesh flying.

Under this shot, the treacherous scum's head shattered with a massive gap, revealing a dark hole, but there was nothing inside.

"Damn you, lowlifes of the Great Xia Empire, how dare you destroy my puppet doppelganger! I will capture you and present you to the shikigami for their amusement!"

With a piece missing from its head, number seven still roared incessantly, but this time, he had learned his lesson and hid behind a boss.

"This bastard really is cunning, using a puppet doppelganger as a decoy."

Seeing there was no hope of taking down the opponent, Shen Yurou aimed her gun at the Spider Monster entangled with Lao Tie, and began to coordinate with Lao Tie to dismember the giant spider's legs.

"Dealing with the Evil God is like bargaining with a tiger for its skin, only fools would make direct contact, is it because they wish to die more swiftly?"

The Evil God belongs to the source of chaos, highly contagious and corrupting to living beings. Once turned into the fallen, not only are life and death out of their control, but they would also fall under the control of the Evil God, eventually becoming part of the Evil God or transforming into abyssal monsters.

Ever since Zi Liyuan knew why the nine major academies weren't specially recruiting talent related to death professions this year, he had his concerns. In fact, he planned to obtain a treasure that could conceal the aura of death before venturing into the Sea of Realms. He didn't want to catch the eye of the Evil God in the Sea of Realms!

"This guy can command the Lord Bosses, Xiao Yurou, find a way to blow him up."

In just a few short seconds, under the command of the treacherous scum, hundreds of First Order Lord Bosses almost instantaneously wiped out hundreds of Shield Combat Skeletons.

The bosses unleashed various skills that overlapped each other. With every group attack, the Shield Combat Skeletons shattered upon touch and turned to dust with just a brush, offering no resistance at all.

"This bastard has become cautious, hiding behind the bosses and not daring to show his face, unless you use the bombing chicken, air-dropping corpses on top of the bosses and use the Corpse Explosion Technique to blast him, otherwise, killing this guy will be difficult."

Although Shen Yurou was fully focused on sniping at the Spider Monster, she still spared some of her attention to the movements of the treacherous scum, ready to take the opportunity to give him a few more shots unexpectedly.

"It's not that simple, this guy knows I am a Second Order Necromancer, he must be guarding against the Corpse Explosion Technique. Plus, I need to use this technique by surprise to clear the surrounding Lord Bosses that are ganging up on us, so later on, you'd better keep your distance from me to avoid getting killed by mistake by the Corpse Explosion Technique."

The Corpse Explosion Technique didn't discriminate between friend or foe, save for the user. The bodies he used were from Lord Bosses with millions of hit points. Unless one had special protective measures, any professional would be obliterated upon impact, a sure death with each explosion.

"Don't worry about me, just be careful yourself."

Even with the best equipment and high physical attributes, at most, one would have a bit more than 30,000 hit points. With the killing power of the Lord Bosses, it might only take a few high-damage skills to wipe someone out.

Shen Yurou was now wearing an exoskeletal sniper armor, combined with other equipment that increased speed, her movement speed had increased by 125%. Those First Order Lord Bosses simply couldn't catch up with her.

On the other hand, due to the needs of his attributes, Zi Liyuan's equipment mainly enhanced Spirit and Spiritual Power, and his speed boost wasn't as high. Facing the onslaught of so many bosses, there was no escape, so all that was left was to fight to the death.

Although she wished that all capitalists should hang from the streetlights, her boss was actually pretty decent, with a valiant and masculine appearance. If he could be saved, she believed they should at least attempt to do so.

Ahem, she wasn't lusting after someone's body. After all, in this day and age, finding a decent boss with good looks wasn't easy, and she wasn't quite ready to consider changing jobs yet.
