Global Grave Digging: My Reward Increased Ten Thousand Times

73: Thundercloud Storm Contraction”Resurrect! My Undead!”

The Soul fire in Lin Mengzi’s eyes flickered as she pressed her fair palm against the core of the remains left behind by the shattered Eight-Armed Demon Elephant, whispering an ancient undead incantation.

Rich power of death surged out like ink-colored tides, seeping into every fragment of armor and bone.

Woo—!

It was as if countless aggrieved spirits were wailing; a dark golden light shone from the pile of rubble, gradually outlining a vague yet massive silhouette.

The broken bones seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, beginning to piece themselves together and reorganize, while the fractured armor, under the erosion of the power of death, once again radiated a gloomy luster.

Eight arms re-condensed, and the stone hammers and battle axes at their ends flickered with even more ominous purple electric arcs.

Finally, an 【Undead Eight-Armed Demon Elephant】, similar in size to before but with a ball of ghostly blue Soul fire burning in its eye sockets and emitting an even thicker aura of death, slowly stood up and respectfully lowered its head toward Lin Mengzi.

The giant purple gemstone on its forehead, which symbolized its core, had disappeared, replaced by a constantly rotating rune magic orb composed of pure power of death.

Moreover, thanks to the enhancement of the 【Bone Armor】 rune, the surface of the Undead Eight-Armed Demon Elephant was now covered in a layer of heavy armor made of pale white bone, with ferocious bone spurs even growing at its joints, making its defense look even more astonishing than when it was alive!

”Good grief! Big sister, isn’t your Undead Mage class a bit too cheap? You can resurrect anything?” Lin Fei looked at the imposing new summon before him, clicking his tongue in wonder.

”Impressive, right?” Lin Mengzi said, hands on her hips, beaming.

”Truly impressive. Since you can resurrect anything, you might as well just kill me.” Lin Fei joked.

”Nonsense.”

Lin Mengzi raised her finger and poked Lin Fei.

”Regardless, big sister, you’re getting stronger the more you fight!”

Lin Mengzi lifted her chin with a hint of pride, then explained with a trace of regret: ”It’s not that easy. My 【Resurrection of the Dead】 skill has specifications: monsters below level 50 can be converted if I consume enough mana.”

”But! Once they exceed level 50, or if the target belongs to a special existence with an extremely powerful Soul, such as Primordial Remnants, Holy Spirits, or Dragon Clan with Advanced bloodlines, their Soul fire is too strong, and my skill priority isn’t enough to directly suppress and convert them.”

She pointed to her class title.

”I am currently only an Epic-grade 【Undead Necromancer】, and my class tier limits me. When that happens, I must first create a special item called a ’Soul Gathering Orb’, and then, like throwing a Poké Ball, I’ll have a certain chance to capture their Soul and convert them into an undead servant, and the failure rate is quite high.”

Hearing this, Lin Fei nodded understandingly: ”Even so, it’s still very powerful.”

Being able to stably convert Lords below level 50 was already Heaven-Defying enough.

”Yeah! Anyway, before level 50, I don’t need to worry about that for now.” Lin Mengzi said cheerfully.

”Now that the Lord has been taken care of, let’s thoroughly loot this main hall.” Lin Fei waved his hand.

The three of them immediately took action.

The Undead Eight-Armed Demon Elephant was left by Lin Mengzi at the entrance of the main hall to act as a sentry.

Their luck was not bad. After clearing out a few relatively intact side halls and sacrificial rooms behind the main hall, they found some glowing gemstone orbs.

Most were White Common-grade and Green Excellent-grade.

But there were also a few Blue Rare-grade ones mixed in.

Xu Zhengyang happily found two Blue Rune Stones.

One was 【Precision Headshot】, which could slightly increase firearm accuracy and headshot damage.

The other was 【Swift Steps】, which could slightly increase movement speed after hitting an enemy; both were quite suitable for his Gunfire Master class.

Lin Mengzi also gained two.

One was 【Curse Amplification】, which could slightly enhance the negative curse effects she applied.

There was also 【Ice-Snow Intelligence】, which could slightly increase the Intelligence attribute of the summoned undead creatures, making them act more flexibly.

Lin Fei found three Blue Rune Stones suitable for him.

He chose to use them directly.

The first was 【Spatial Fold】, which enhanced the 【Blink】 skill, reducing its mana cost by 10%, shortening its cooldown by 20%, and giving a small chance that it could be used again within a short time without a cooldown.

The second was 【Protective Aura Penetration】, which enhanced the 【Monument Breaking Hand】, allowing it to be transformed into a five-finger palm print blast.

The third was 【Thorn Wave】, which enhanced the 【Dragons Roar Gold Bell Cover】, causing the bell shield to reflect a portion of the damage received in the form of sound waves.

However, the reflection range was not large, only reaching ten meters.

Although the Blue Rune Stones did not provide as immediate an improvement to Lin Fei’s strength as the Purple ones, they excelled in optimizing and supplementing his skills, making his skill system more complete and flexible.

Just as the three were finishing looting the entire main hall.

Hum—!

A low and urgent alarm sound, accompanied by a change in the map, simultaneously appeared in the minds and visions of all surviving players!

【Warning! Thundercloud Storm is about to shrink! New safe zone has been determined!】

【The current safe zone will begin to shrink in 5 minutes. All players, please move to the new safe zone as soon as possible!】

Lin Fei immediately opened the map to check.

Sure enough, the white circle representing the safe zone had already begun to move and shrink toward the southeast direction of the map.

The new center point was none other than the toxic swamp filled with purple mist they had seen earlier, and the area of craggy Stone Forest in the center of the swamp!

And the Thunder God Temple where they currently were was already on the edge of the white safe circle, and it would soon be swallowed by the constantly advancing deadly Thundercloud Storm!

”We have to go!” Lin Fei said decisively, ”The circle has spawned over by the Stone Forest in the swamp, we need to get there as soon as possible!”

”The swamp? The safe zone actually spawned over there? Looking at the map, to get there, we have to cross the bridge.” Xu Zhengyang frowned.

Lin Mengzi put away the Undead Eight-Armed Demon Elephant, ”Feifei, which direction should we go?”

”Go out through the west hall entrance. The terrain is relatively more open there, making it easier for us to find a vehicle.” Lin Fei quickly planned the route.

The three did not hesitate, immediately turning and moving quickly toward a relatively intact exit on the west side of the main hall.

They left this ancient temple that had just experienced a fierce battle and the awakening of a Boss.

Outside, gunfire still rang out sporadically, and occasionally the light of skills could be seen flashing in the distant sky. Clearly, the battle in the Thunder God Temple area had not yet completely subsided.

Lin Fei and the others ignored this, quickly passing through a stretch of broken walls and ruins, arriving at a relatively open wasteland overgrown with weeds.

Fortunately, not far away, a military convertible jeep that looked like it could still run was parked quietly under a crooked tree.

”There’s a car!” Xu Zhengyang’s eyes lit up, and he immediately ran over to check it.

”The fuel tank is still half full, it can drive!”

”Get in!”

The three quickly got into the car. Xu Zhengyang skillfully started the engine, and the jeep let out a roar, speeding off toward the Stone Forest in the swamp marked on the map.
