Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Both the Chuangshi Institute and Yanhuang Institute failed.

Even though they had cleared the dungeon, even though they had placed on the leaderboard, but for top institutes like theirs, it was considered a failure, a thorough defeat.

The manner both sides departed was vividly described by people, and would likely soon spread throughout the Xiajing Academy.

”Ha-ha, look at them, even people from top academies are nothing special.”

”When they came, they were so arrogant and insufferable, but when they left, they left with their tails between their legs.”

In front of the Dungeon Hall, the crowd was discussing spiritedly. It was as if Lin Moyu’s victory was their victory.

At this time, independent institute students and ordinary students were united.

Lin Moyu’s reputation grew once again. However, as he was engrossed in speedrunning, he was completely unaware of what was happening outside.

Every time he completed a raid, he wouldn’t linger outside for more than a few seconds. He didn’t even bother checking the results of the Chuangshi Institute and Yanhuang Institute. There was no need to.

Lin Moyu was pretty confident that no one could break his record for this dungeon. Even he found it difficult to break his own record.

After raiding the dungeon five times in a row, another Fire Crystal was completed.

Lin Moyu didn’t rest. At this time, he was in high spirits, having a blast grinding.

With the privileges granted by Ning Tairan, he didn’t have to worry about points. The entry and reset fees were reduced to 100 and 500 points respectively. To him, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Speedrunning had very high efficiency, causing his EXP to soar. By the time the second Fire Crystal was fully completed, his EXP had reached 93%. Each raid basically increased his EXP by about 10%. He was only one raid away from reaching level 29.

”Let’s keep pushing forward!” Lin Moyu was excited, even thinking of pushing all the way to level 30.

”How many times is he going to raid the dungeon?”

”Who knows. I’ve been counting, and he has raided it at least eight times.”

”It’s more than that. Including the first time, he has raided it ten times already.”

”Is he a machine? If I had to raid the same dungeon ten times in a row, I would feel like throwing up.”

”That would depend on how much you stand to gain. This is a hell rank dungeon, with super high EXP. If I could gain that much from a dungeon, I would gladly raid it 100 or even 1,000 times!”

Solo grinding meant all the EXP and materials went to one person.

Amidst the discussions, Lin Moyu exited the dungeon once again.

At this time, he had already reached level 29. In less than a day, he had leveled up from level 28 to level 29.

If it were anyone else, it would normally take at least one month to level up. Lin Moyu, however, did it in a single day.

After reaching level 29, the rate at which EXP rose decreased once again. It would take about thirteen to fourteen raids to reach level 30.

Lin Moyu raided the dungeon four more times before the third Fire Crystal was completed.

Before he leveled up, he used up all his spirit force to summon three Skeletal Warriors.

Due to raiding the dungeon back-to-back, he didn’t get the chance to recover his spirit force.

Prior to leveling up, his spirit force was only enough to summon three Skeletal Warriors.

After completing the third Fire Crystal, he summoned seven more Skeletal Warriors. This swelled the number of Skeletal Warriors to 190, filling up his summon space.

With his spirit force depleted, he finally felt fatigued. His body issued a warning. He realized he had to take a rest. After all, he was not a Warrior. His restorative capacity wasn’t that great.

While the mind could still keep going, the body couldn’t. He found a spot outside the Dungeon Hall and sat down to rest.

While his body was exhausted, his mind was still energetic. There was no helping it. After all, speedrunning was just too exhilarating.

Lin Moyu was somewhat addicted to this feeling. But he knew it wasn’t right, and he shouldn’t indulge in it.

As a class user, especially a Mage-type class user, you needed to remain calm and collected at all times. No matter what happened, only by staying composed, only then would you be able to make the most correct decision and display the greatest combat power.

Hearing the distant murmurs, Lin Moyu listened intently. They were all talking about the Chuangshi Institute and Yanhuang Institute.

The people here were either ordinary students or independent institute students, and they both admired and envied top institute students, resulting in quite complicated emotions.

Seeing them fail, for some reason, each one of them felt a certain pleasure.

As his mind gradually calmed down, Lin Moyu worked hard to pull himself out of the addicted state, before finally entering a meditative state. His spirit force began to be restored rapidly.

After an unknown period of time, someone approached him.

”Lin Moyu.” A crisp voice sounded.

Lin Moyu opened his eyes and showed a light smile, ”It’s you guys.”

Xia Xue, Feng Xiu, and Zuo Mei stood in front of him.

Xia Xue said teasingly, ”Congratulations, Champion Lin!”

”Congratulations, Lin Moyu.”

”Congratulations!”

Feng Xiu and Zuo Mei also congratulated Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu got up, ”How did you guys do in the class user competition?”

He hadn’t seen them in the class user competition.

Xia Xue sighed, ”Don’t bring that up. We didn’t even pass the preselection; got kicked out right away.”

Seeing their not-so-happy expressions, Lin Moyu didn’t inquire further.

Feng Xiu said, ”Actually, it’s no big deal. After all, we just entered the academy, and are a cut below others in terms of levels and equipment. It’s not surprising we were eliminated during the preselection.”

Xia Xue added, ”So we came back early and went dungeon grinding.”

Zuo Mei uttered, ”We’re level 20 now.”

After a few days, they had reached level 20, showing they were working hard. They must have gone dungeon grinding quite a few times the past few days.

Before level 20, leveling wasn’t particularly slow. So long as there was a suitable dungeon, leveling up once a day wasn’t strange.

In particular, in the Dungeon Hall, spending points allowed for unlimited dungeon resets, bypassing the cooldown period. If you didn’t fear getting tired, leveling could be done quite fast.

Lin Moyu said, ”You guys received the dungeon mission, haven’t you?”

”We have!” Xia Xue waved her communicator.

Every new student was given dungeon missions from the academy. Starting from level 20, up until level 30, there were ten dungeons that needed to be cleared. The academy had no restrictions regarding difficulty, so clearing even normal rank difficulty was fine.

Among the 10 missions, the only troublesome one was the Tyrant Desert, a large dungeon. The dungeon itself wasn’t that hard, but the same couldn’t be said about organizing a team of forty people.

Many got stuck at this step. It could be regarded as a test the academy set for the students.

Lin Moyu said, ”I’ll carry you through the Tyrant Desert dungeon.”

Previously, Lin Moyu promised to carry them through the Tyrant Desert once they reached level 20. He planned to wait until he reached level 30 before contacting them.

The Tyrant Desert dungeon was a level 25 dungeon, permitting access to class users within a 10 level range, from 5 levels below to 5 levels above the dungeon’s level. Level 30 was the dungeon’s upper limit.

Now that they met, and they were level 20, it was the right time.

Although Lin Moyu mentioned this before, but it was just a passing comment and wasn’t taken seriously.

Xia Xue was surprised, ”That’s a large dungeon, requiring a 40-person party. We can’t find that many people.”

Since they were new students, they had few contacts, and their levels were quite low.

Lin Moyu shook his head, ”No need to look for anyone else. I’ll carry you.”

The three looked surprised, realizing that Lin Moyu wasn’t joking. He really could carry them.

Feng Xiu still found it hard to believe, ”Can you solo a large dungeon?”

Lin Moyu nodded confidently, then led the shocked group into the Dungeon Hall, to the entrance of the Tyrant Desert.

When they saw Lin Moyu’s result—6 hours, 11 minutes, 33 seconds—the three were speechless.

Not only did he go solo, but he also took first place, his result far better than that of the second place.

Previously, they teamed up with others to raid the Mutated Forest Dungeon, and they had seen Lin Moyu’s name at the top of the leaderboard, and he had gone solo as well.

But was a small dungeon the same as a large dungeon? Was a dungeon below level 20 the same as a level 25 dungeon?

Everyone knew that the higher the level of the dungeon, the harder it was to solo it. This was surreal.

Lin Moyu ignored their inner turmoil and directly formed a party with them. With him as the party leader, the four entered the Tyrant Desert dungeon.

Yellow sand filled the view, and wind blew past, raising sand into the air. A scorching sun hung overhead, blazing down relentlessly.

”So this is the Tyrant Desert dungeon. It’s really a desert, it’s so hot.”

”It’s vast, boundless. There’s sand wherever the eye can see; easy to get lost here.”

”Which direction should we go?”

The three people, who entered the dungeon for the first time, looked around like curious little chicks.

Having gotten used to the intense heat of the Fire God’s Palace Hall, Lin Moyu found the temperature in the Tyrant Desert pleasant and comfortable.

190 Skeletal Warriors appeared in front of them and charged ahead like an army.

”There are monsters in the desert! Follow me!”
