Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

The skeletons led the way, providing cover as they escorted Lin Moyu and Mu Xianxian into the Demonic Dragon Hall. Quick-thinking human parties followed close behind, rushing into the dungeon. In moments, more than half of the humans outside had vanished. Once Lin Moyu was inside, his undead legions also disappeared.

With their numbers drastically reduced, the humans outside quickly found themselves at a disadvantage. Sensing trouble, the few parties withdrew from the combat zone, leaving the Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind locked in a tense standoff.

Although it seemed a fierce battle was inevitable, both sides paused, realizing that the humans had already secured an advantage by entering the dungeon. In a strange, silent agreement, the Demons and Dragonkind ceased their fighting and rushed toward the entrance. One by one, they entered the dungeon, leaving the remaining humans outside bewildered. It was unheard of for these two hostile races to avoid fighting each other.

Moments later, the remaining humans also rushed toward the dungeon. In an instant, the area outside was deserted, save for the vision, tempting anyone brave enough to claim the hidden treasures.

In the distance, Mo Yun, perched on her Holy Spirit Unicorn, watched the events unfold with confusion. The Demonic Dragon Hall was typically a battleground of relentless conflict, with the three races battling fiercely for the right to enter. Yet now, the area outside was eerily calm, as every party had managed to enter the dungeon without bloodshed. Mo Yun found it hard to accept this sudden shift.

Soon, she noticed another group of Abyssal Demons flying through the air, rushing toward the dungeon. Meanwhile, a new human party appeared on the ground. Mo Yun swiftly withdrew, keeping her distance—being alone, she wasn’t an obvious target.

The newly arrived Abyssal Demons, finding the area empty, mistakenly believed they were the first to arrive and eagerly charged inside. The human class users followed suit.

In just five minutes, Mo Yun watched as at least ten more parties entered the dungeon. She couldn’t help but think that this might be the most crowded the Demonic Dragon Hall had ever been.

Inside the Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon, Lin Moyu and Mu Xianxian were greeted by a bone-chilling cold, the temperature quickly dropping below freezing. Icicles clung to the ceiling, and a layer of pale blue ice blanketed the ground. Though the temperature plummeted to at least -50°C, class users could still endure the harsh conditions.

Mu Xianxian gasped, ”Looks like we got lucky—it’s the Ice Demonic Dragon.”

Lin Moyu glanced at her; with ice covering every surface, her remark felt unnecessary.

The Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon was unique in that its environment shifted with each entry, much like the Divine Selection Secret Realm. Sometimes, class users faced the Fire Demonic Dragon, other times the Ice Demonic Dragon, yet other times Demonic Dragons of other elements.

So far, over a dozen types of Demonic Dragons had appeared in the dungeon. The Black Demonic Dragon was notoriously the most difficult to face, while the Ice Demonic Dragon was considered relatively easy. However, the stronger the Demonic Dragon, the more Dragon Crystals it would drop.

Lin Moyu cautioned, ”Wait for the right moment to use Collection.”

Having worked with him before, Mu Xianxian replied confidently, ”Don’t worry.”

Ahead of them loomed a massive cavern—100 meters tall and 50 meters wide. One of the dungeon’s unique features was the absence of mob monsters. The only enemy was the Demonic Dragon, and the dungeon could be cleared by slaying it.

The rules were simple: defeat the boss. But execution was far from easy. The Demonic Dragon’s attributes varied greatly depending on the dungeon’s difficulty level.

As they entered the cavern, a freezing wind whipped through, growing the ice on the ground. The icicles hanging from the ceiling also grew larger. Their Bone Armor materialized in response, signaling the wind’s offensive nature.

”This feels like it’s a breath.” Mu Xianxian said, her face pale.

Lin Moyu asked, ”What kind of Demonic Dragon did you face last time?”

Mu Xianxian replied, “We encountered the Poison Demonic Dragon. As soon as the fight started, our entire party was poisoned. Despite having five Healers, they couldn’t keep up with the poison, which was too advanced for them to dispel. The poison grew stronger as the battle continued, and eventually, we had no choice but to withdraw from the dungeon.”

”Didn’t you have antidotes?” Lin Moyu asked.

”We did, but they didn’t help much. The whole cavern was filled with poison. Once we dispelled it, we got poisoned again right away, and antidotes have cooldowns.”

Listening to Mu Xianxian, Lin Moyu noted that this situation resembled the Earth Evil Centipede encounter. However, he wasn’t particularly concerned about this type of challenge.

After walking for about 20 minutes, they finally saw the Ice Demonic Dragon. It lay sprawled across a massive crystal throne, its blue body radiating a cold that froze the cavern. The throne was encased in ice, which held numerous treasures that sparkled brightly.

The Ice Demonic Dragon was still asleep, its cold breath causing their armor to rattle. Mu Xianxian was right; the cold wind was just its breath. Lin Moyu could sense its presence and, even without using the Detection spell, had a rough idea of its strength.

It was likely on par with the Earth Evil Centipede, though far weaker than the Archaic Luanniao and even more so compared to the Archaic Earth Dragon.

After battling many bosses, Lin Moyu had developed a sharp intuition.

The Ice Demonic Dragon opened its eyes, locking onto Lin Moyu and Mu Xianxian with a murderous glare. It awoke with a thunderous roar.

Standing 30 meters tall and over 50 meters long, it unfurled its massive wings and roared at Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu’s Detection spell immediately landed on its body.

[Ice Demonic Dragon (hell rank boss)]

[Level: 56]

[Strength: 100,000]

[Agility: 60,000]

[Spirit: 120,000]

[Physique: 160,000]

[Skills: Frostbound Land, Massive Freeze, Super Ice Blast]

[Traits: Water Elemental Immunity, 50% Elemental Damage Reduction, 50% Physical Damage Reduction, Curse Effect Greatly Weakened, Health Greatly Enhanced]

With a total of 440,000 in attributes, the Ice Demonic Dragon was on par with the level 58 Earth Evil Centipede. As a level 56 hell rank dungeon boss, its attributes even surpassed those of level 58 world rank bosses. The difficulty of the Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon was indeed immense, requiring an exceptional party to clear it.

Bai Yiyuan had mentioned that when he was level 45, he had coincidentally encountered a level 40 Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon. It was now clear that luck wasn’t the only factor—his strength played a significant role.

World bosses could often be defeated by sheer numbers, with dozens or even a hundred class users. However, the Demonic Dragon Hall dungeon only allowed up to 12 class users at hell rank difficulty, making it notably more challenging.

“Alright, let’s do this,” Lin Moyu said softly, summoning the 15 undead legions. Fortunately, the cavern was large enough to accommodate them all.

The Lich Generals raised their staves in unison, and a booming noise filled the cavern as white light shot into the air, casting a dazzling glow across the ice.

With the Skeletal Warriors having received status buffs, they charged forward, followed by the Skeletal Mages unleashing their magic spells. The force of 3,000 Skeletal Warriors and 2,250 Skeletal Mages was spectacular, even startling the Ice Demonic Dragon, whose roar shifted into an unusual pitch.

The Skeletal Mages’ magic spells engulfed every inch of the Ice Demonic Dragon’s body. Flames roared, winds howled, and thunder boomed. The cavern echoed with a cacophony of sounds as small explosions erupted across the Demonic Dragon’s blue body.

Mu Xianxian watched in amazement. Lin Moyu’s skeletal army had grown significantly since the last time she saw it. Her initial astonishment soon turned to excitement. With such a formidable force, she was confident they could defeat the Demonic Dragon. She could already imagine the Dragon Crystals awaiting her. After Lin Moyu awakened a new talent, he would likely share the extra Dragon Crystals with her, just as he had given her the Earth Gem previously.

Before the Ice Demonic Dragon could finish its roar, a barrage of magic spells from the Skeletal Mages struck its open mouth, cutting the roar short. The Demonic Dragon spread its wings and took to the air, breaking through the network of magic attacks.

The Skeletal Warriors had already reached it, many leaping up to grab onto its scales and rising into the air with it. Even as they were lifted, the Skeletal Warriors proceeded to swing their blades with relentless dedication.

The Ice Demonic Dragon’s body was now marked by red burns from fire and black scorch marks from lightning, with many of its scales damaged by wind blades. The over 2,000 magic attacks had inflicted substantial damage.

Enraged, the Ice Demonic Dragon shook violently, trying to throw off the skeletons. Yet they clung on stubbornly, anchoring themselves in the cracks between its scales and never ceasing their assault. Their relentless attacks caused cracks to appear on the Dragon’s scales.

Lin Moyu tapped the air with his finger, and a red glow descended as the Damage Curse took effect.
