Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Thanks to the class awakening, Lin Moyu had automatically mastered the skills of level 40 without needing skill scrolls. Along with these new skills, the system had also optimized and merged some of his existing ones.

As he reviewed his skills, he realized most of them remained unchanged but had been significantly enhanced.

The first notable transformation involved Blessing of Light, which he had previously acquired through a Light Gem. This active skill had now merged with a new one, becoming a passive skill: Status Immunity.

[Status Immunity: immune to all negative statuses.]

Negative statuses covered by the skill included curses, control, and sealing. Blessing of Light had been an active skill with a 30-minute duration and a cooldown period of the same length. Now that it had become a passive skill, Lin Moyu no longer needed to manually activate it—he was permanently immune to all negative statuses.

As far as Lin Moyu knew, no class had a passive skill like this. Even the Dragonkind, who were naturally resistant to negative statuses, couldn’t achieve complete immunity.

The second major change involved two of his most frequently used skills, Slow Curse and Damage Curse, which had fused to form a new skill: Deterioration Curse.

[Deterioration Curse (level 40): curses enemies within a range of 100 meters and reduces their speed by 100% and increases the damage they receive by 30%. Duration: 1 minute.]

After the merger, the speed reduction aspect of Slow Curse’s portion had been slightly weakened, but the range had been extended to 100 meters, allowing the curse to affect far more enemies. Meanwhile, Damage Curse’s portion remained the same in terms of damage amplification, but its range was significantly expanded.

Under the effect of the Complete Amplification talent, the curse’s effects would skyrocket, reducing the enemies’ speed by 50 times and increasing the damage they received by 15 times. With the fusion of the two curses, Lin Moyu no longer needed to choose between the two—they were now combined into a single devastating skill.

The third thing to change involved the Bleed Curse skill, which he had acquired during the second class awakening. It had merged with Poison Star Ring, creating a deadly new skill: Poison Starburst.

[Poison Starburst (level 40): deals poison-type damage to all enemies 400 points of strength per second within 100 meters. Duration: 100 seconds.]

The skill retained the original power of Poison Star Ring, but both its range and duration were dramatically increased. In situations where no corpses were available, this would become Lin Moyu’s most potent group attack skill. Under the effects of Comprehensive Amplification, Poison Starburst inflicted the equivalent of 20,000 points of strength per second for 5,000 seconds. The total damage output was staggering. When paired with the Primordial Rune’s Enhance Troops skill, its destructive power would escalate to a terrifying degree.

After reviewing these massive improvements, Lin Moyu shifted his attention to his newly acquired skill, Summon Skeletal Marksman.

[Summon Skeletal Marksman (level 1): summons an Iron Skeletal Marksman.]

This skill provided Lin Moyu with a much-needed ranged physical attack ability. With the inclusion of Skeletal Marksmen, Lin Moyu’s undead legions now had a full spectrum of units: Warriors, Mages, and Archers. The addition of Skeletal Marksmen greatly increased his tactical versatility.

He realized that after the second class awakening, he had mastered a total of three new skills. Two of these skills had fused with older skills, leaving Summon Skeletal Marksman as the only one that had remained unchanged. His other summoning skills had also undergone significant transformation.

[Summon Skeletal Berserk Warrior (level 40): summons a Platinum Skeletal Berserk Warrior.]

[Summon Skeletal Great Mage (level 40): summons a Platinum Skeletal Great Mage.]

Although Lin Moyu hadn’t checked their exact attributes yet, he was certain that these newly upgraded skeletons would be far stronger than their previous versions.

Another major discovery was that his summon space had expanded dramatically. Previously, his summon space had increased by 10 slots per level. At level 39, he had 390 slots, and by level 40, it should have increased to 400. However, after the class sublimation, his summon space expanded to 600—an increase of 50%.

This meant that each Lich General under his command could now control 600 skeletons. With 20 Lich Generals at his disposal, Lin Moyu could now command an undead army of 12,000 skeletons. Given the enhanced attributes of his skeletons, he felt confident he could clear any dungeon with ease.

He also noticed something unusual. Both his title and equipment were gone. The attribute bonus from his title had vanished, and his equipment no longer provided any buffs. This change, he suspected, was related to his class.

Previously, Lin Moyu had already been unable to enjoy status buffs provided by supports, but now it seemed even titles and equipment had become ineffective.

”I have to rely entirely on myself now!” Lin Moyu thought as he exhaled deeply. But it didn’t bother him much—he was already incredibly strong. With his boundless spirit and incredibly high attributes, titles and equipment no longer mattered.

The gains from the second class awakening were immense—soaring attributes, new godly talent, new skills, all incredibly powerful.

Opening his eyes, Lin Moyu saw Bai Yiyuan, Yan Kuangsheng, and Meng Anwen quietly drinking tea, though it was clear they were eagerly awaiting his update. While they appeared nonchalant, Bai Yiyuan kept sneaking glances his way. Lin Moyu noticed but chose not to call attention to it.

”Teachers, Senior Meng, my class awakening has concluded. Thank you for your protection” Lin Moyu said respectfully, serving tea to the trio.

Bai Yiyuan accepted his tea with a calm grunt, masking his curiosity, ”How did it go? Tell us.”

Though they could all see that Lin Moyu’s class had evolved into Necrolord, a completely new class never before seen in human history, they were eager to hear the details.

Lin Moyu began explaining the talent and skills he had acquired. When he mentioned that his newly acquired talent had merged with the one he’d obtained from the Dragon Crystal, forming a new godly talent, Bai Yiyuan and Yan Kuangsheng’s expressions shifted dramatically. Both exclaimed in shock, ”How is that possible?”

Meng Anwen, however, remained unruffled. He coughed softly and said, ”No need to be so surprised. Talent fusion has happened before in history.”

Both Bai Yiyuan and Yan Kuangsheng immediately turned their attention to him, disbelief written on their faces.

Bai Yiyuan narrowed his eyes, ”I’ve never heard of anything like this. Old Meng, you better not be pulling my leg.”

Meng Anwen remained composed, ”It’s in the Imperial Chronicles. Pages 73, 256, and 399. You can check it for yourselves. Not only can talents be fused, but skills as well. It just proves the two of you haven’t read enough.”

Lin Moyu let out a sigh of relief. Earlier, he wasn’t sure how to explain things, but now, realizing there were documented cases of talent and skill merging, he felt relieved. It saved him the trouble of inventing an excuse.

Meng Anwen asked, ”What are your current attributes?”

Lin Moyu replied honestly, ”My spirit attribute has surpassed 100,000, and the other three are at 47,850.”

Yan Kuangsheng sipped his tea and nodded, ”Hmm, a total of 150,000 in attributes. Even without the bonus from the Bloodthirsty Python heart meat, you’d still have 70,000—pretty impressive, higher than most other class users.”

Suddenly, Bai Yiyuan exclaimed, ”Wait a second… when you say your other three attributes, do you mean their sum or individual values?”

”They’re 47,850 each.” Lin Moyu clarified.

Pffft! Yan Kuangsheng spat out his tea, spraying it all over Bai Yiyuan, ”So your total attributes are actually 250,000?”

Lin Moyu calmly confirmed with a simple, ”Mhm.”

Even as a god-level powerhouse, Yan Kuangsheng couldn’t contain his excitement. At level 40, Lin Moyu’s attributes were several times greater than other class users of the same level!”

Bai Yiyuan took a sip of tea and said, his voice trembling with excitement, ”Your attributes are already several times higher than a mid-tier legendary class user. You’re practically a humanoid world boss at this point!”

Lin Moyu smiled, ”It’s all thanks to your guidance. Without Teacher Yan’s Bloodthirsty Python heart meat, Teacher Bai’s class awakening formation, and Senior Meng’s advice, my attributes wouldn’t have reached such heights.”

He gave credit to Bai Yiyuan and the others, which the three old men greatly appreciated.

Yan Kuangsheng said modestly, ”Your effort played a big part as well.”

Bai Yiyuan waved his hand, tossing a small box to Lin Moyu, ”This is a gift for your successful class awakening.”

Curious, Lin Moyu opened it, and dazzling light spilled out, along with strong elemental fluctuations. Inside were three accessories—a ring, a pair of earrings, and a necklace—all boss accessories, plus a talisman.
