Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 371: Dragon Blood Lizard, Detection Skill Won’t Be Wrong

The pond emitted a strong acidic stench and had intense corrosive properties. Lin

The skeletal berserkers suffered continuous damage as soon as they entered.

Through the skeletal berserkers’ senses, Lin Moyu roughly saw the monster at the bottom of the pond.

The monster looked like an octopus, with eight tentacles and a slender body.

The tips of the tentacles were forked, resembling animal claws with sharp nails, and the tentacles also had suction cups.

The suction cups had great strength, firmly locking onto the skeletal berserkers.

More detailed information was unknown, as the skeletal berserkers could only transmit basic information, which was not as clear as seeing with one’s own eyes.

The skeletal berserkers quickly counterattacked, their axes glowing red as they heavily chopped at the monster’s tentacles.

Boom!

A column of water shot up, reaching tens of meters high, then fell back down as rain.

Lin Moyu and Dongfang Yao had already moved far away when the water column erupted, as the water was too foul-smelling to bear. The skeletal berserkers’ skills cut through the monster’s tentacles like tofu, and they began attacking the monster’s body. The skeletal mages had already reached the edge of the pond, using the berserkers’ vision to lock onto the monster’s position. The skeletal mages’ hands glowed brightly, and they cast one skill after another into the water.

Elemental explosions roared continuously, and the foul water in the pond was blasted into the sky.

In no time, the small pond was emptied.

The monster inside had long been blown to pieces.

Acidic water fell like rain.

The skeletal berserkers dragged the monster’s head back to the ground, and Lin Moyu cast a detection skill from a distance.

[Rotten Octopus]

[Level: 60]

Still, only the monster’s name and level were shown.

It was indeed a level 60 monster area.

Judging by the damage it inflicted on the skeletal berserkers, it was no different from the level 60 monsters Lin Moyu had encountered before. The only difference was that its attacks carried a strong “corpse poison.”

This term was learned from Dongfang Yao.

Each attack would accumulate corpse poison.

After many attacks, the accumulated corpse poison would be quite significant.

Corpse poison caused continuous damage and lasted a long time.

Lin Moyu had once conducted an experiment, letting a skeletal berserker be bitten by a level 30 low-level corpse.

Ten days later, the corpse poison still remained.

Such strong persistence shocked Lin Moyu.

Dongfang Yao had told him that corpse poison would persist as long as it wasn’t neutralized.

It would accumulate and exist permanently, making corpse poison extremely terrifying.

Fortunately, the Lich General’s skill could eliminate corpse poison; otherwise, Lin Moyu would have to abandon poisoned skeletons and summon new ones.

Looking ahead at the thousands of ponds, almost every pond contained a rotten octopus, making it impossible to pass without being attacked.

Lin Moyu never liked being passive.

With a thought, hundreds of skeletal mages appeared.

The skeletal mages immediately began using elemental explosions to blast the ponds, drying up the foul water and exposing the rotten octopuses.

The skeletal berserkers were ready, and as soon as the rotten octopuses appeared, they swung their axes and quickly chopped them into pieces.

Although these rotten octopuses wouldn’t truly die, they wouldn’t recover anytime soon.

The skeletons moved quickly, clearing a path.

Lin Moyu and Dongfang Yao followed the cleared path, taking half a day to leave the pond area.

The sky brightened, and lightning streaked across the sky.

Another storm appeared ahead, and Dongfang Yao smiled, “You can go get struck by lightning again.”

Lin Moyu looked at the storm; in the level 60 area, the storm was clearly stronger than before.

Under the storm, a large number of monsters had gathered.

Nearly a hundred monsters were gathered together, and then a massive lightning bolt struck down.

The lightning was enormous, hitting one monster directly.

The monster exploded on the spot, and the terrifying lightning spread out, being absorbed by the other monsters.

The exploded monster then reformed, emitting an even stronger aura than before.

After the lightning, the thunderous sound reached them, deafening and shaking the ground.

Dongfang Yao trembled, “This lightning seems much stronger than before.”

Lin Moyu nodded slightly, “Indeed, much stronger.”

He had already noticed that so many monsters gathered together to share the lightning’s impact.

Genesis Lightning could cause them to evolve but also harm them.

If they couldn’t withstand it, they would explode and take a long time to recover.

Lin Moyu had seen similar situations along the way.

Lin Moyu mused, “I didn’t expect these creatures to learn to share the damage…”

“Have they developed weak intelligence, or is it instinct?”

Among these rotten monsters were humans, demons, and dragons.

The three races that fought fiercely outside were living in harmony here.

In the [Corpse Realm], there were no racial divisions, only rotten monsters, which had become a single race. They shared the Genesis Lightning, all benefiting and growing stronger.

Then they collectively turned to look at Lin Moyu and Dongfang Yao.

The aura of living beings was as bright as the sun to the rotten monsters.

Over a hundred rotten monsters charged at them simultaneously.

Along the way, the rotten monsters had been scattered.

It was rare to encounter three or four together.

Facing over a hundred rotten monsters charging at them was a first, and each one was over level 60.

Like the three races, once they surpassed level 60, their attributes increased significantly.

Rotten monsters were no exception.

Before his second job change, Lin Moyu would have turned and left without a second thought when facing this group of rotten monsters.

But now…

In less than a breath, the rotten monsters had covered a thousand meters.

Lin Moyu was well-prepared, with 500 skeletal berserkers in front, 500 skeletal mages behind, and two Lich Generals at the back.

The skeletal berserkers swung their axes, blocking all the charging rotten monsters, not letting a single one through.

At this moment, the skeletal berserkers acted like knights.

Though they didn’t have shields, their bodies served as shields.

The skeletal mages stood behind, continuously casting explosions.

These rotten monsters were clearly much stronger than the rotten octopuses, and the skeletal mages couldn’t kill them instantly.

[Advanced Rotten Corpse]

[Level: 61]

[Advanced Rotten Demon]

[Level: 62]

[Advanced Rotten Dragon Blood Lizard]

[Level: 61]

Three detection skills landed on three different types of rotten monsters.

They were remnants of the ancient battle, belonging to different races.

The rotten corpses were human, and the rotten demons were Abyss demons.

But the monster that looked like a dragon…

“How can this be?” Lin Moyu was surprised.

It was clearly a dragon-like rotten monster, but it was identified as a Dragon Blood Lizard.

Although dragons had some lizard-like features.

Dongfang Yao asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

“Use your detection skill on the dragon-like rotten monster.”

Dongfang Yao cast a detection skill and was also surprised, “Why is it a Dragon Blood Lizard?”

Lin Moyu shook his head.

They had encountered dragon-like rotten monsters before, but they were too low-level and were blasted to pieces by the skeletal mages’ attacks.

So Lin Moyu hadn’t used the detection skill on them.

The detection skill never lies; it was a skill brought back by human ancestors from the Primordial Secret Realm.

Moreover, any human could use it, with no class or level restrictions.

For many years, the detection skill had greatly aided humanity.

If the detection skill identified it as a Dragon Blood Lizard, it must be correct.

Lin Moyu felt he had discovered an incredible secret.

Under the full attack of the skeletal berserkers and skeletal mages, the hundred-plus rotten monsters were quickly cleared.

Only fragments remained, waiting to regenerate.

The Lich Generals dispelled the corpse poison from the skeletal berserkers, and Lin Moyu stepped into the storm.

Dongfang Yao warned, “Be careful.”

She had seen the terrifying power of the lightning, which required a hundred rotten monsters to share.

But Lin Moyu was alone.

Lin Moyu didn’t mind, feeling the warm current in his body, and the Genesis Scepter appeared in his hand.

The Genesis Scepter didn’t need to be stored in a storage space; it was similar to the Domain Spirit Stone.

It was usually kept in the spiritual world and could be summoned directly when needed.

The storm in the level 60 area was much stronger, and the Genesis Lightning was much more powerful.

But Lin Moyu wasn’t worried.

To kill him, they would have to get past his undead army first.

He even looked forward to the enhanced Genesis Lightning, hoping it would bring him a pleasant surprise.
