The Rise of the Cemetery

(Thanks to o((⊙﹏⊙))o, Everlasting and Nanshanhuo for their big red envelope rewards!)

Li Xun may not realize how important the word "eternal life" is to ordinary people.

As a necromancer, as the lord of the cemetery, he has too many means to extend his life. But for ordinary people, without the assistance of drugs, it is extremely rare to live to a hundred years old, let alone live to the upper limit of 120 years for ordinary people in the Klein plane.

Like His Majesty King Toveni in front of him, he is 89 years old this year, and with the infusion of a large number of rare treasure resources, he barely has the status of a 13th-level fighter. This may make him stronger and less susceptible to disasters, but it still cannot prolong his lifespan.

Once upon a time, the sensational fruit of life of the elves on the mainland and the vitality potion of the mage guild could either delay people's aging, or keep people full of youthful vitality until they died. But still can't prolong life.

The necromancers in history are a group of spellcasters who have gone astray in pursuit of immortality. They have overwhelming power, and have developed numerous flesh and blood regeneration, lich reincarnation, soul transfer, soul transfer, life hiding, life extension rituals... But among so many strange and strange arts, the only one that has no sequelae The only thing left is the life extension ceremony.

But this life extension ceremony really relies too much on those rare treasures. Most of the magic materials needed to perform the ceremony are treasures that are scarce or impossible to find on the plane of Klein. Under such circumstances, many power holders who wish to continue their rule for a long time have to frequently ask for help from the demons in the lower realm or a certain hidden necromancer.

Either secretly holding blood sacrifices, or cruelly turning part of themselves into undead, this has always led to horrible incidents in some countries in the mainland where some nobles are suddenly revealed to be big demons or undead creatures. And every such event is often accompanied by violent regime turmoil.

As great nobles, they lack power, land, wealth, and women. The only thing that makes them worry about is the loss of energy and the exhaustion of life. So Li Xun didn't pretend, and directly pointed out the best answer that the cemetery could give them.

The Great Necropolis helps them expel the drow and the black dragon by force, so that they can keep their power and land, and the method of immortality can make their dreams come true. After pondering over and over again, Li Xun really can't think of any other forces that can offer better conditions than himself!

Perhaps it was precisely because the conditions offered by the Great Cemetery were so good, this action completely angered the powerful angel Lavin.

"The birth and death of the soul is the domain of the gods, undead, you have crossed the line!"

With the violent shouting of the angel of strength, a long-planned "light of judgment" came to Wallace (played by Li Xun) with a thunderous force.

This time Li Xun didn't struggle, in fact, struggling was useless.

Li Xunjuan, who had been prepared for a long time, jumped back to the Undercity instantly with Valence's soul wrapped around him, leaving only an empty body for the opponent to be incinerated. As for the quarrels in the Altin states, Li Xun didn't care about it.

There's no point in staying there. Even if the dignitaries are moved by their own promises, there must be a process of probing and bargaining. So as soon as the seeds of inner demons were planted, Li Xun escaped by evading death. No matter how those human dignitaries choose, if they want to live forever, they can only ask me obediently!

It's not just them. Once such explosive news is released, I'm afraid those legendary powerhouses will also be unable to sit still. As for the legendary old monsters of the Mage Guild, well, they must be flocking to them too.

But these guys are not idiots, and they will definitely pick out a suitable candidate to test the waters. Let's see if this is fake news released by the Necropolis in order to control the rulers of the human kingdom. As long as there is one successful example, the followers behind will surely break their heads.

Fear of death is, after all, human nature! Who can live forever, who is willing to give up everything that he has worked so hard to gather for hundreds of years!

But that force angel, Lavin, also killed himself once in name, and this hatred is considered to be over. Li Xun engraved the name Lavin into his heart angrily, and at the same time threw Valence's soul to the dracolich beside him.

"Send him back to Salma's blood pool to resurrect, and take a soul orb from my treasury by the way, and give him a reward!"

Salma is the holy city of the blood clan, and the blood pool there is undoubtedly the best of the best. If the soul orb bestowed by the Lord of the Cemetery is added, I am afraid that after this Valence is resurrected again, the biological level will instantly soar to the level of a secondary hero.

This can be regarded as a big figure in the entire cemetery!

The dracolich who took over also nodded enviously, turned and left.

Li Xun sat alone on the throne of bones, thinking over and over about the conversation he had with the old corpse, and finally stabilized his mind.

Although the development of the large cemetery is very important, the growth of its own strength cannot be given up. In order to lay a solid foundation, Li Xun has been suppressing his urge to level up, and has been sharpening his physical attributes in various ways.

Now it's finally time for him to soar into the sky.

Character: Li Xun (Natir)

Identity: Lord of the Graveyard

Occupation: Undead Master

Alignment: Lawful evil

Talent: Panorama

Level: Level 20

Strength: 9

Dexterity: 7(-2)

Constitution: 8 (-4)

Intelligence: 23

Perception: 23

Charm: 15

Magic Pet: Crow Mouth

Feats: Combat Casting, Spell Mastery, Spell Mastery, Spell Penetration

Special Attacks: Soul Coercion, Higher Spell Mastery, Counterspell, Soul Link, Paralyzing Attack

Magical Equipment: Dragontooth Crown (head), Soul Weaver (staff), Dawi Robe (robe), Gale Boots (foot), Powerful Rune Ring (finger), Knuckle Ring (finger) , Mind Talisman (neck), Book of the Dead (right hand)

Intelligence is Li Xun's main attribute, when it reaches 5 points, there is an additional Spell Mastery feat, when it reaches 10 points, there is an additional Spell Mastery feat, and when it reaches 20 points, there is an additional Spell Penetration feat. It is conceivable that when Li Xun crosses the threshold of level 20 and becomes a legendary mage, he will definitely gain an additional personal specialty.

Think about the rest of the coveted personal specialties: maximum spell effect, spell enhancement, spell upgrade, spell enhancement, spell extension, spell delay, spell magic, spell fixed casting... all of these are mouth-watering DC's ultimate specialty, no matter which one is selected, it will be a huge improvement for the caster. And as a benefit of a legendary mage, if you pass level 20, you can get an additional super magic feat every time you upgrade.

This also means that the gap between legendary mages and holy mages is getting bigger and bigger, making it impossible for the latter to compare.

The reason is very simple.

On the premise of not considering the difference between silent spell casting and spell casting, it only takes 5 knuckles for a 20th-level holy mage to trigger a burst fireball. If you want to add a supermagic skill that increases the distance of the spell to this bursting fireball, you need to spend an extra 2 fingers to chant the spell. And a 21st-level legendary mage may have the metamagic feat of increasing the distance of spells, which saves the 2 fingers of casting time.

Therefore, an explosive fireball with a long distance needs to cost 7 fingers of a holy mage, but only 5 fingers of a 21st-level legendary mage. In the same way, the higher the level of the spell activated, the more obvious the difference. So putting a holy mage and a legendary mage together doesn't have much analogy at all.

After studying the basic attributes of the individual, Li Xun began to check his strategic skills. (All in parentheses are selected)

1 (Elementary Necromancy), (Elementary Summoning Magic), (Elementary Dark Magic)

20 (Undead Lord), Spell Master and Advanced Summoning Magic

Since the major strategic skills mastered by Li Xun have been upgraded to advanced one after another, some adjacent high-level strategic skills have begun to merge, and some gratifying special skills have appeared.

For example, after mastering necromantic witchcraft and the curse master in dark magic, Li Xun obtained a magical skill called "soul link". The biggest advantage of this skill is that it can link Li Xun's soul to a target creature, but after the opponent is damaged, Li Xun can get the corresponding mana feedback from it. The more seriously the opponent was injured, the more mana feedback Li Xun got.

This also means that Li Xun can only choose a magic pet that is strong enough and durable enough for himself, so he no longer has to worry about his mana.

There is also a "Undead Lord" skill that is obtained after mastering necromancy and scholars in advanced learning. This skill can increase Li Xun's intelligence by 1, and he can automatically master all non-legendary spells in the realm of death.

As for the howl of the banshee obtained at level 17, it is a simplified version of the "howl of the banshee". In addition to tearing the souls of the weak, it can also make all creatures who hear the spell get the "retreat" effect. This is also a large-scale negative blessing, which will reduce the morale and luck of all non-undead creatures by -1, and reduce individual activity.

After becoming a level 20 holy-level necromancer, Li Xun's spellcasting level has reached level 10. Unfortunately, let alone holy-level spells, he can't even cast a level 9 spell. If it wasn't for the undead lord skill that allowed him to automatically master all non-legendary death spells, Li Xun might have become the most shabby and desolate holy mage.

With the 8th-level "Arouse High Undead", "Death", "Death Emblem", and "Clone", and the 9th-level "Astral Projection", "Energy Absorption", "Soul Binding", The "Howling of the Banshee" and other spells emerged in the soul one by one. Li Xun, a holy necromancer, finally deserved his name and thoroughly mastered all the high-level spells of the necromantic system.

From now on, Li Xun really looks like a necromancer!
