Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 197: As If a New God-Level Expert is Being Born

When Lin Moyu returned to Summer Capital University, he attracted the attention of countless students.

His reputation had grown too large in the past few days.

He was now famous not just nationally, but worldwide.

Everyone knew about Lin Moyu and his achievements.

The Career Holder Tournament had champions every year, and Summer Capital University never lacked champions.

But someone like Lin Moyu who swept all the titles was truly rare.

And breaking the challenge record to create a new record had never happened before.

As Lin Moyu walked through the university, almost every student would look at him.

Wherever he went, he attracted countless gazes.

Students would often come up to greet Lin Moyu proactively.

Whether ordinary students or those from independent academies, they would all try to get on Lin Moyu’s good side when they saw him.

Strength was the ultimate truth. Someone like Lin Moyu, as long as he didn’t die, would surely become a famous big shot in the future.

He might even become an existence like the White God.

Such a person had to be respected.

Lin Moyu was very uncomfortable with this, feeling awkward all over.

Ning Yiyi seemed to have anticipated this, quickly disappearing with a silvery laugh.

“That naughty girl, escaping so fast.”

Looking at the spotless dormitory, Lin Moyu realized he had only stayed there a few nights since enrolling.

There were no traces of him living in the dorm.

Sitting on the bed, he took out the Junior Mysterious Potion and drank it.

He immediately felt a warm current flowing through his body.

The warmth spread to his limbs and body, increasing all his attributes.

As a magic career, his basic attributes besides spirit power were not very high.

At level 27, his strength, agility and constitution were only 510 each.

Only his spirit power was high at 2700, higher than the sum of the other three.

Now after taking the Junior Mysterious Potion, all attributes increased by 200.

This was a significant boost for him.

“If only my attributes could be the same as my skeletons’, then I’d be really strong.”

“Too bad the all-round enhancement talent only works on skills, with no effect on myself.”

As the thought arose, skeleton warriors and mages appeared in the dorm.

A chilly wind blew, rapidly lowering the temperature.

Undead summons always carried a gloomy aura that inspired fear.

“Level 27 skeleton warrior, all attributes…”

“Skeleton mage, 1500 spirit, 340 for the other three attributes.”

Lin Moyu said softly.

Without the god-level all-round enhancement talent, the skeletons weren’t actually very strong.

With these attributes, they weren’t even as powerful as ordinary career holders.

Their only advantage was their large numbers, enough to overwhelm monsters.

But Lin Moyu felt that as a unique hidden career, Necromancer definitely had more to it than this.

“Some careers are weak early on but get stronger later.”

“Maybe when I level up and get new skills, things will change.”

“Even without the talent, it should still be the strongest career.”

Lin Moyu had full confidence in his career.

The scene he saw when transitioning careers – countless dense skeletons appearing like a disaster before people’s eyes.

Even mighty dragons could be killed by skeleton warriors.

One day, he would also reach that level.

That scene had pointed the way for his career, showing him its future.

That night, Lin Moyu organized his skills and reflected on his gains and losses.

He recalled details from battle after battle, verifying them against his own ideas.

Thinking back now, if he hadn’t held back and had used Soul Flame directly, he would have won even more easily.

But that skill was too painful, as could be seen from the career holders’ reactions.

So in battles that weren’t life-or-death, he didn’t really want to use that skill.

…

In the White God’s courtyard, Lin Moyu sat at the tea table, respectfully brewing tea for Bai Yiyuan and Meng Anwen.

Bai Yiyuan enjoyed being served by his student, smiling.

He liked this student more and more.

“You performed very well this time.”

Meng Anwen said calmly, “How could he not do well? Five rounds of challenges, no one in history has ever achieved that. Much stronger than you were back then.”

The smile instantly disappeared from Bai Yiyuan’s face. “Can we have a nice chat or not?”

“I’m just telling the truth. Back then you only passed three rounds. As a man, you’re not going to deny it, are you?” Meng Anwen continued speaking calmly, as if chatting with an old friend.

Bai Yiyuan gritted his teeth in frustration. His old friend really wasn’t giving him face.

Coughing lightly, Bai Yiyuan changed the subject. “Kid, next you need to quickly level up to 30. Then I’ll take you somewhere.”

Lin Moyu nodded, “Okay.”

“Stay at the university these few days. If you want to level up, go to the Dungeon Hall.”

“You must have noticed, you’re in the spotlight too much now. People are watching you wherever you go.”

Indeed, now wherever he went, people would notice him.

It was like being a celebrity in his past life, surrounded by onlookers everywhere he went. Very uncomfortable.

Bai Yiyuan said, “Being noticed isn’t important. The key is, you don’t know which of those people have ill intentions.”

“In recent years, geniuses in the empire have been assassinated one after another. So you must be careful.”

“At least in the university, you won’t be in danger.”

Bai Yiyuan gave a few instructions. From his words, one could hear how much he cared about Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu also felt the warmth.

After Lin Moyu left, Meng Anwen opened his eyes and looked at Bai Yiyuan. “You plan to take him there?”

Bai Yiyuan looked matter-of-fact. “Of course. How can one be considered a qualified career holder without going there?”

Meng Anwen said solemnly, “Aren’t you afraid he’ll encounter danger? You only went there after your second transition.”

Bai Yiyuan shook his head. “I went too late. The earlier you go to that place, the more benefits.”

“Suit yourself. He’s your student after all.” Meng Anwen didn’t say more.

Bai Yiyuan showed no concern at all. “Don’t worry. This kid doesn’t talk much, but he’s actually very clever. It won’t be easy to kill him. Moreover, he has the Soul Hall mark. Even if he dies, he can be revived.”

…

The Dungeon Hall was still lively.

The moment Lin Moyu stepped out of the teleportation array, the whole space fell silent.

“It’s Lin Moyu.”

“He’s back.”

“I knew he was amazing before, but I didn’t expect him to be this amazing.”

“I feel like I’m seeing a new god-level expert being born.”

“I can’t believe I ran dungeons with someone like him. Just thinking about it is exciting.”

“Come on, you just paid points to have him carry you through dungeons. That doesn’t count as running dungeons together.”

People whispered, all looking at Lin Moyu with reverent gazes.

Here, no one dared look down on him.

Even those high-level career holders who had completed their second transition were the same.

He could defeat a level 50 mage team from the military. What were they in comparison?

Even career holders over level 50 wouldn’t be Lin Moyu’s match in single combat.

Strength was respected. Having the biggest fist was the hard truth.

Lin Moyu walked into the Dungeon Hall amid everyone’s respectful gazes.

“Lin Moyu, you’re back!”

Shu Han appeared before Lin Moyu with a smile.

“What a coincidence.”

He didn’t expect to run into an old acquaintance right after returning.

Shu Han’s smile always carried a hint of languor, her whole being exuding tranquility.

One could feel a sense of composure from her.

Though Shu Han bore no insignia of any independent academy, looking like an ordinary student,

Her temperament was completely different from ordinary students.

Lin Moyu felt Shu Han’s family background must not be ordinary.

However, he didn’t understand why she was always doing some trivial tasks.

Just earning some small amounts of points.

What use were these few points?

Lin Moyu asked softly, “Are you here to do tasks again?”

Shu Han smiled brightly, “Yes, what about you?”

Lin Moyu said quietly, “Running dungeons, leveling up.”

“Do you need me to recommend a dungeon? There’s a fee though, 100 points.”

Lin Moyu traded 100 points to Shu Han.

“Great, earned another 100 points.”

“Follow me then, classmate Lin Moyu.”

Shu Han revealed a brilliant smile, turning to walk towards a dungeon.

The vortex at the dungeon entrance was slowly rotating, with flames occasionally bursting out.

Level 32 dungeon, [Fire God Palace].
