Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Several hours later, Lin Moyu emerged from the Military Skill Grinding Site, satisfied that his Poison Star Ring had finally reached level 35, as he had hoped. From now on, the skill would progress alongside him.

[Poison Star Ring (level 35): creates a 35-meter radius area that deals damage equivalent to 350 points of strength per second for 35 second.]

After the effect of Comprehensive Amplification was applied, Poison Star Ring’s range expanded to 1,400 meters, its duration stretched to 1,400 seconds—over 20 minutes—and its damage output soared to 14,000 points of strength per second.

It was akin to being struck by a Warrior with 14,000 points in the strength attribute every second for over 20 minutes, without any hope of defending against it.

At first glance, Poison Star Ring might seem unremarkable, but a closer look revealed its terrifying potential. Few humans used poison-type skills, and no class specialized in them. Poison-type skills were primarily the domain of monster bosses, and even among Abyssal Demons, they were rare. In short, Lin Moyu’s skill was exceptionally rare, even rarer than legendary class users.

While grinding at the Military Skill Site, Lin Moyu also replenished his skeletal army. His 15 undead legions were now fully restored, composed of 3,000 Skeletal Warriors and 2,250 Skeletal Mages. An additional 200 Skeletal Warriors and 150 Skeletal Mages awaited in the summon space. Altogether, he commanded a force of 5,600 skeletons, bolstered by 15 Lich Generals. All were connected through the Summon Health Link talent, sharing damage, healing, and even fate.

Lin Moyu felt deeply satisfied with his undead legions.

”Brother Lin!” A voice called out.

Turning, Lin Moyu saw Shi Xing’an and Liang Yue approaching. He greeted them with a light smile, ”Brother Shi.” Seeing the two holding hands, he couldn’t help but chuckle, ”Congratulations.”

Liang Yue, typically calm and composed, blushed slightly. The two had been interested in each other for a while, but neither had made a move—until now.

”Where’s Yiyi?” Liang Yue asked.

Lin Moyu replied, “Her family sent her for special training. I haven’t seen her for a couple of months now.”

Shi Xing’an uttered, “Brother Lin, where have you been? I couldn’t reach you at all.”

”My teacher sent me to the Immemorial Battlefield.” Lin Moyu explained. ”Oh, by the way, I have something for you.”

Shi Xing’an was now level 34, still some distance away from level 40 and the second class awakening. However, Lin Moyu intended to give him the items early. It also served as a congratulatory gift for his relationship with Liang Yue.

Lin Moxu led them to a secluded spot within the military grounds.

Shi Xing’an was puzzled, ”Why are you being so cautious?”

Liang Yue, more perceptive, gently patted him on the shoulder, ”Be quiet, you blockhead. Brother Lin has his reasons for being cautious.”

Shi Xing’an let out an ”oh” and fell silent.

Lin Moyu then produced the Hearts of the Earth and Earth Gems, handing them to Shi Xing’an. The moment Shi Xing’an laid eyes on them, his breath quickened, his eyes filled with disbelief, and his whole body trembled in excitement.

”Brother Lin, are you really giving these to me?” His voice quivered, as though he could hardly believe what he was seeing.

To Shi Xing’an, these items were priceless treasures. During the second class awakening, achieving class sublimation was his ultimate dream.

If a Sacred Knight reached class sublimation, they would become a Sacred Light Knight, a legendary class user. However, that would be the limit—unlike naturally awakened legendary classes, this type of legendary class couldn’t evolve further into mid-tier or even high-tier legendary classes. There was also a natural gap in attributes.

Shi Xing’an had long envied the Sacred Light Knight, Zhou Lesheng. But deep down, he believed he could never surpass him, only hoping to get close.

But now, Lin Moyu had placed the key to the pinnacle of the Knight class right in his hands. It was impossible not to be overwhelmed with excitement.

The Earth Knight—a true hidden class—represented the ultimate peak of the Knight class, even surpassing high-tier legendary classes. Throughout human history, Earth Knights had performed miracle after miracle. The very presence of an Earth Knight on the battlefield had become synonymous with human invincibility. This belief was ingrained in every class user’s mind.

Liang Yue, equally excited, reacted quickly, ”You fool, put them away quickly! Don’t let anyone see.”

The Heart of the Earth and Earth Gem were incredibly rare treasures, and when combined, they became even more valuable.

Shi Xing’an hurriedly stored the items, repeatedly thanking Lin Moyu. ”Brother Lin, such a tremendous favor... I don’t know what to say. A simple thank you doesn’t cut it.”

Lin Moyu smiled, ”Reach out to me when you’re close to your second class awakening. My teacher can help you increase the odds of class sublimation.”

Becoming an Earth Knight required successful class sublimation.

Shi Xing’an, filled with gratitude, didn’t doubt Lin Moyu for a moment, ”Brother Lin, your teacher is...?”

”White God.” Lin Moyu revealed.

Shi Xing’an shuddered, while Liang Yue covered her mouth, gasping in surprise.

The illustrious White God was Lin Moyu’s teacher. It made perfect sense—who else but Bai Yiyuan could possibly be worthy of mentoring someone as exceptional as Lin Moyu?

Shi Xing’an etched Lin Moyu’s words deep into his mind, ”I’ll definitely seek your help when the time comes, Brother Lin.”

Lin Moyu smiled, ”Alright.”

Determined, Shi Xing’an resolved to level up as quickly as possible. His goal was to achieve his second class awakening and become an Earth Knight—the first in nearly a century. The thought of creating a legend drove his ambition.

Liang Yue squeezed his hand, her gaze unwavering, ”I’ll be by your side.”

Shi Xing’an nodded gratefully, ”Thank you.”

After completing his skill grinding, Lin Moyu planned to return to Xiajing Academy. His level had risen high enough, and he’d amassed more than enough contribution points. Up until now, Lin Moyu hadn’t paid much attention to these points, but upon checking, he discovered he’d accumulated a staggering 6,000 contribution points—primarily from slaying Abyssal Demons and Dragonkind.

This meant he was fully qualified to join the prestigious Chuangshen Institute, where he could potentially fight alongside his sister in the future.

Just as Lin Moyu was about to leave, a sudden burst of red light erupted from the teleportation formation, catching him off guard.

”Why is the teleportation formation glowing red?” He wondered.

In the blink of an eye, the red light intensified, and a blinding beam shot into the sky from the teleportation formation. Alarms blared across Fortress No. 1, and its defensive shields deployed immediately. The red teleportation formation locked down, preventing anyone from entering or exiting.

The fortress was sealed off and shifted into combat mode, as the atmosphere grew tense. All military personnel were mobilized at once.

Then came the booming voice, and military orders echoed through the fortress.

”Level 1 Military Order: all below level 40 low-level class users are to remain at Fortress No. 1 and prepare for battle.”

”Level 1 Military Order: all level 40 to 60 high-level class users are to proceed to Fortress No. 6 through the military teleportation formation.”

”Level 1 Military Order: all level 60 to below third class awakening high-level class users are to proceed to Fortress No. 7 through the military teleportation formation.”

”Level 1 Military Order: all top-level class users are to proceed to Fortress No. 8 through the military teleportation formation.”

The same orders echoed across all fortresses as beams of red light shot into the sky from the teleportation formations, which now only connected the fortresses. Class users moved in accordance with the orders, proceeding to their assigned fortresses. Military orders were absolute, and no one dare to disobey them.

When war erupted, every citizen of the Shenxia Empire could become a soldier and join the fighting.

Lin Moyu also headed for the teleportation formation. Although he was only level 35, staying behind in Fortress No. 1 would be a waste of his combat power. Only the battlefields at Fortress No. 6 or even Fortress No. 7 were suitable for his abilities.

”Stop. Low-level class users must stay at Fortress No. 1.” A soldier stationed at the teleportation formation said, blocking Lin Moyu’s way, ”If you go to a high-level battlefield, you’ll die. Please return.”

Without a word, Lin Moyu flashed his military badge.

The soldier stiffened and saluted immediately, ”Sir.”

On the battlefield, rank was more important than level—a universal rule.

”Am I qualified to go in?” Lin Moyu asked.

The soldier hesitated, caught between following the military order and respecting Lin Moyu’s one-star colonel rank. Before he could respond, a party arrived, and their party leader stepped forward.

”What’s the situation here?” The party leader barked.

The soldier quickly explained, mentioning Lin Moyu’s rank.

The party leader saw Lin Moyu’s military badge and saluted, ”Sir, as per regulations, your colonel rank qualifies you to proceed to any of the three fortresses.”

Lin Moyu nodded, ”I’ll go to Fortress No. 6.”

”As you command, Sir. Please enter the teleportation formation.”

The military, true to its nature, operated with swift precision and without unnecessary delays. Lin Moyu, now cleared to proceed, stepped into the teleportation formation. In an instant, a bright red light enveloped him, and he was transported to Fortress No. 6.
