Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start

"So, name your price!"

"At least three bravery points."

"What if I give you this key? Can it be valued at 1 bravery point?"

Chen Mo took out the Purple Gold Secret Key he had previously haggled down to a low price from the Elf Clan.

The Mysterious Merchant took the Purple Gold Secret Key, examined it, and said, "It's a good item. Worth one bravery point."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo was immediately overjoyed. How could a mere Purple Gold Secret Key compare in importance to a god-grade one? He chose to make the deal right away.

[The Heavenly Path's Hint: You have spent two bravery points to purchase the 'God-Grade Secret Key.' You currently have eighteen bravery points.]

"Thank you for your patronage. Is there anything else you need?"

"Nothing else is useful. Forget it. If I meet you again further down, we'll trade then."

"That's fine, but it depends on whether you can continue to descend."

The Mysterious Merchant gave Chen Mo a meaningful look.

Seeing his attitude, Chen Mo became even more curious about what lay ahead.

"Will there be any sudden spikes in difficulty?" Chen Mo ventured to ask.

"Considering you just made a deal, I'll give you a piece of information. It's best to clear all universal buffs from the enemies before you reach the forty-first floor of the Underworld City."

"Why?"

"Well then, I shall take my leave. I look forward to our next meeting."

The Mysterious Merchant didn't answer, instead vanishing into a puff of smoke.

"This guy, always speaking in riddles. Damn it!"

Chen Mo could only turn and enter the thirty-first floor, his questions unanswered.

[The Heavenly Path's Hint: You have entered the seventh-tier region. All monsters in this region have their Life increased by 16,000% and their Attack and Defense increased by 1,600%! Monsters in this region will gain the sixth Underworld City Universal Buff.]

[The Heavenly Path's Hint: The current Underworld City Universal Buffs are "Solid," "Cruel," "Bloodthirsty," "Dodge," "Tenacity," and "Thorns."]

[Thorns]: When damaged, all monsters reflect half of the damage received. (Ineffective against true damage and Chaos Damage).

Another troublesome buff. However, the Mysterious Merchant reminded me to clear all buffs before entering the forty-first floor of the Underworld City. I can wait until the fortieth floor to assess the situation.

As Chen Mo entered the thirty-first floor, the information board outside updated accordingly.

Initially, when everyone saw Chen Mo stuck on the thirtieth floor for a while without any change, they couldn't help but think this was his limit.

Unexpectedly, after a short wait, the number next to his name flashed and changed to 31.

"He really broke through the thirtieth floor!"

"The thirtieth floor is basically a first-transition, Level 20, silver-grade BOSS with 80 times the Health and 8 times the attributes, right? And he passed it?"

"Maybe he chose attributes for all his rewards and spent all his bravery points to boost his combat power."

"Even so, it's extremely unbelievable. After all, he's just a two-star Skeleton Mage. The teammates he can recruit only have two-star attributes. Can such a team configuration pass the thirtieth floor?"

Some people found it very difficult to understand.

"Don't overthink it. His speed in descending the lower floors was already inhuman. It's not surprising he passed. Who knows what this kid has done or what tricks he has up his sleeve."

At this point, those who had bet that Chen Mo would pass thirty floors were happily starting to collect their winnings.

"Anyone else want to bet on the thirty-fifth floor?"

"If he can pass the thirtieth floor, then betting on the thirty-fifth isn't interesting. We might as well bet on whether he can clear all fifty floors!"

"Heh, that would be interesting. But the fiftieth floor is said to be god-grade! Impossible."

"If it were in the past, I would have indeed thought it impossible for anyone. But with his peculiar performance now, I'm interested in setting up odds for him this time."

When these words were spoken, many people around also became interested.

The fiftieth floor is the ultimate level of the College Entrance Exam Instance. Not only has no one ever passed it to date, but no one has even come close.

Betting on this was indeed quite anticipation-inducing.

And so, a new round of betting began at once.

Those who had lost money previously also placed heavy bets this time.

At this point, no one cared how Chen Mo managed to achieve such an outrageous feat.

They only cared if Chen Mo's outrageous performance could truly ignore all difficulties and allow him to reach the very end.

Due to the increasingly monstrous Health of the enemies in later floors, Chen Mo's descent speed began to slow.

By the time he reached the thirty-fifth floor, others had already entered the third floor.

In the past, reaching the third floor at this point would have made someone an object of attention and discussion.

But this time, with such a freak present, any other brilliant performance was completely overshadowed.

Upon reaching the thirty-fifth floor and seeing the BOSS, Chen Mo was visibly stunned.

Well, well! Looks like I've run into a colleague!

Hiss! Now *this* is what you call an Undead Mage! When will I ever have such summoning abilities?

After reading the opponent's attributes, Chen Mo was completely dumbfounded.

Summoning Skeleton Monsters in numbers equivalent to his Magic Attack value? This opponent could summon over a hundred thousand Skeleton Monsters with a single skill! And that's not all! He can also summon over a hundred Death Knights and even about a dozen Bone Dragons.

Without a second thought, Chen Mo immediately activated the effect of his The God of Bravery title!

If he let the Undead Mage use his skills first, how could he possibly win?

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! Chen Mo instantly sealed all three of the Undead Mage's summoning skills, leaving none unsealed.

"Huh!?"

The Undead Mage had originally planned to spout some intimidating words upon seeing Chen Mo before starting the battle.

However, he suddenly found himself enveloped by a mysterious sealing energy. Three of his skills were immediately sealed—all of them crucial summoning skills.

"Despicable Adventurer, what did you do to me!!!" the Undead Mage roared angrily at Chen Mo.

"Nothing much, just giving you a little 'Adventurer's Shock.' I imagine you're used to doing this to others. Today, you get to taste it yourself."

Chen Mo chuckled mischievously. Then, with a wave of his Magic Wand, an Energy Bullet shot forth. In the next instant, a dense volley of arrows followed, WHOOSHING through the air, accompanied by the appearance of a vast formation of 3,400 Skeleton Monsters!

The Undead Mage opposite him was also quite surprised to see a fellow practitioner.

He had always been the one to use a Skeleton Legion against others; when had he ever faced a massive Skeleton Legion himself?

At this moment, he was both furious and helpless!

All his summoning skills were sealed, and he had to face this alone!

"Fortunately, this world has granted me immense power! Adventurer, don't think you're so great just because you have numbers!"

Even though his summoning skills were sealed, the Undead Mage, with his hundreds of billions in Health and over one hundred thousand attack power, was still very confident.

Without his minions, he still had his formidable self.

As the Undead Mage pointed his Magic Wand at Chen Mo, WHOOSH! A Dark Energy Bomb, swift as lightning, shot towards Chen Mo.
