Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 279: If It Happens Again, You'll Lose That Eye Of Yours



Lin Moyu reviewed his spoils from the Eartheart dungeon. He had raided the dungeon three times successfully, but the fourth attempt was cut short by the sudden appearance of the Archaic Earth Dragon’s main body.

With Mu Xianxian accompanying him, EXP was halved, but all other rewards were doubled. He had acquired 6 Earth Gems, 6 Earth Crystals, and 14 Hearts of the Earth. Lin Moyu and Mu Xianxian each used an Earth Gem. Additionally, Lin Moyu utilized two Earth Crystals: one to create a three-element Elemental Divine Stone with fire, poison, and earth elements, and another to craft a two-element Elemental Stone combining earth and fire elements. He still had 4 Earth Gems and 4 Earth Crystals remaining. The Hearts of the Earth remained untouched, as they were strategic resources valuable to humanity but of no immediate use to him.

Since entering the Immemorial Battlefield, Lin Moyu had encountered numerous special opportunities, greatly enhancing his combat power. Bai Yiyuan had been right; although the battlefield was perilous, it was filled with opportunities.

His Divinity Force had risen to level 34, promising an additional 34% boost to his attributes upon his next level up. Lin Moyu didn't fully understand why Divinity Force could influence the probability of class sublimation, but he knew that the earlier one obtained it, the better.

Mu Xianxian returned to Jialan Yeyu's party, while Lin Moyu, as usual, continued on his own. Dungeon running with Lin Moyu had been an exhilarating and thrilling experience for Mu Xianxian, leaving her somewhat addicted to the speed and efficiency. As she watched Lin Moyu leave, she couldn't help but feel a pang of reluctance.

“Missing him already?” Jialan Yeyu teased, leaning in with a playful smile.

Startled, Mu Xianxian blushed, whispering, “No way. Sister Yeyu, don’t tease me.”

Jialan Yeyu laughed, “Oh, our little Xianxian is blushing!”

Her teasing brought good-natured laughter from the other members of the Yeyu Knights, who looked at Mu Xianxian with amused smiles.

“It’s not like that.” Mu Xianxian protested, embarrassed. “I just find his dungeon-running style unique and exciting, and his speed is incredible.”

Intrigued, Jialan Yeyu asked, “Tell us about his style.”

The women gathered around Mu Xianxian, eager to hear how Lin Moyu had managed to clear the Eartheart dungeon in under 40 minutes, when the best recorded time was over 6 hours with a team of more than 20.

Mu Xianxian, not holding back, shared the details. As she spoke, she clutched a Teleportation Stone Lin Moyu had given her—a Point Teleportation Stone with bilateral positioning. She and Lin Moyu had agreed to notify each other if they found the Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon. She eagerly anticipated raiding dungeons with Lin Moyu and experiencing the thrill of speedrunning again.

Lin Moyu departed under the respectful gazes of those around. The Eartheart dungeon had vanished, likely due to the whims of the powerful entity located at the center of the core area. Its reappearance was uncertain and would depend entirely on the entity's mood.

Once again, he set out in search of the Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon, a mission given to him by Bai Yiyuan and a personal pursuit.

Talent awakening was notoriously difficult, and Lin Moyu wasn't sure if the talent provided by the system counted. Even with Bai Yiyuan’s preparations, the odds of awakening a talent during the second class advancement were only about 30%. Therefore, acquiring Dragon Crystal from the Demonic Dragon Hall was crucial. This crystal provided a chance to obtain a talent, ensuring that even if he didn’t awaken a talent during his class advancement, it wouldn’t be a total loss.

Lin Moyu quickened his pace, recalling what Godly Mage Xu Yan had told him. He hoped for the emergence of another three-talent godly powerhouse among humans; one was enough to protect humanity for centuries and deter the Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind from acting up. Of course, all three talents would need to be formidable.

As Lin Moyu advanced, he summoned skeletons to replenish and fill his undead legions. Now at level 34, the number of Lich Generals he could command had increased to 14, and the number of skeletons they could lead had grown to 340. He chose Skeletal Mages to reinforce his legions, bringing the total number of skeletons to 4,760, nearly 500 more than at level 33.

He was confident that with his Enhanced Troops skill, he could handle most bosses—except those with the ability to fly and super-strong combat power like the Archaic Luanniao. The inability to fly remained a significant disadvantage for most human class users below level 70.

After 10 days of travel, Lin Moyu finally completed the reinforcement of his undead legions. When released, the 14 legions presented a formidable force. He continued his journey, dealing with monsters along the way. As he neared the core area, the number of monsters increased, and though the EXP gained here wasn’t as much as from a dungeon, it was still decent.

During those 10 days, he hadn’t encountered any secret realms or dungeons but had faced several waves of Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind. The Dragonkind, not known for their intelligence, were easily deceived and eliminated. The Abyssal Demons, however, proved more troublesome. Some fled upon seeing the one-star colonel badge on Lin Moyu's shoulder, recognizing that anyone who had reached that military rank had undoubtedly spilled much of their kind’s blood. Lin Moyu didn’t bother to chase them.

News of Lin Moyu’s exploits spread across the Immemorial Battlefield. Both Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind, as well as humans, became aware of his existence. Some Abyssal Demons even relayed the news back to the Abyssal World. Many Demons in the Abyssal World learned that a level 34 powerhouse had attained the rank of one-star colonel. Killing him would be a significant achievement, but no Demon was eager to face him.

The Abyssal World wasn’t a monotonous black void; it was illuminated by green flames and populated by strange creatures like Leylight Birds, which flew through the sky, emitting light as they went. These creatures weren’t Demons or demonic creatures, but simple creatures inhabiting the Abyssal World, and the Demons didn’t bother them as there was no benefit in doing so.

Outside the magnificent palace of the Succubus Queen, the space distorted and rippled as a massive fire burst from the darkness. Within the flames, a giant eye opened.

The Fire Demon King had arrived outside the Succubus Queen’s palace, his voice filled with fury, “Succubus Queen, come out!” His voice boomed, causing the entire palace to tremble.

The Succubus Queen appeared in the air, looking both sleepy and annoyed. “Fire, do you know the consequences of disturbing my sleep?”

The fire flickered, as if backing away.

The Fire Demon King tried to maintain his bravado, “I don’t care about consequences. Tell me, did you know Lin Moyu was on the Immemorial Battlefield?”

The Succubus Queen yawned, “I did. So what?”

The Fire Demon King continued to ask, “Then why didn’t you tell me? You knew—”

The Succubus Queen laughed seductively, “How amusing. I did know, but why should I tell you? What are you to me? Unless you spend a night with me, I’m not obliged to tell you anything.”

The fire flickered more violently, and the Fire Demon King retreated a hundred meters.

The Succubus Queen said with a lovely smile, “Such little backbone, yet you dare provoke me? I’ll forgive you this time, but if it happens again, you'll lose that eye of yours.”

Anger flashed in the giant eye, but the Fire Demon King didn’t dare retort. Though they both were Demon Kings, he knew he was no match for her. If a fight broke out, he would undoubtedly lose his eye.

However, he still needed to save face, saying forcefully, “Since you knew Lin Moyu was on the Immemorial Battlefield, why haven’t you sent someone to take him out?”

The Succubus Queen smiled sweetly, “How do you know I haven’t? In fact, I sent a Crimson Moon Demon and an Abyssal Fire Sprite, but they both failed. If you’re so eager, why don’t you handle it yourself instead of bothering me?”

The Fire Demon King’s said solemnly, “I need information.”

The Succubus Queen knew what he wanted—details on Lin Moyu’s skills, attributes, and weaknesses. Despite her disdain for him, basic courtesy among Demon Kings had to be observed.

She tossed him a black stone. “Everything you want is in there. Now, I’m going back to sleep. Don’t disturb me again, or you’ll regret it.”

With that, the Succubus Queen vanished, leaving the Fire Demon King alone. Holding the black stone, he didn’t dare say another word and disappeared with a pop.
