Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start

"You've all heard what the Alliance said, haven't you? Everyone, go home and continue to prepare; there will be a new exam for you the day after tomorrow."

"Chen Mo, hang back. I have a few things to discuss with you." Just as Chen Mo was turning to leave, Shen Rulong called out to him.

The other students didn't yet know what was happening, so they didn't pay much attention.

As the other students gradually left, several teachers gathered around Chen Mo and curiously asked, "Chen Mo, what did the Alliance ask you about?"

"It's a bit strange. I don't know why they asked me if I knew why the instance was abnormal."

"Oh? Didn't you feel anything abnormal in the instance?"

"No. I had just assembled my team and finished the first floor. As we were about to enter the second floor, I suddenly received The Heavenly Path's Hint that there was a problem with the instance. Then, I was kicked out. I have no idea what happened."

"It seems there really was a problem with the instance." Only then did Shen Rulong and the others nod in understanding.

After all, they themselves couldn't achieve that kind of descent speed. Even if Chen Mo had a five-star profession, it would be impossible for him to be that fast. This could only be possible if there was a problem with the instance. And now that the instance was indeed malfunctioning, everything made sense.

It wasn't just them; even the upper echelons of the Academy Alliance thought so.

Even if they felt Chen Mo was strange, consider this: even a fifth-transition powerhouse, with their strength unrestricted, wouldn't dare claim such an absurd descent speed in this examination instance. So, for a child limited to Level 10—regardless of being two-star or five-star—achieving such an outrageous speed was simply impossible.

Therefore, after careful consideration, the only conclusion was that the instance had malfunctioned. Naturally, no one harbored significant suspicions about Chen Mo anymore.

However, the fact that probing Chen Mo yielded no information still piqued the Alliance Hierarch's curiosity. The Alliance Hierarch hadn't received any message from The Heavenly Path's Hint like "Investigation Level Insufficient" or "Unable to Investigate." This suggested the target's concealment level wasn't particularly high. It was just that when he probed, he could only perceive a patch of chaos, indicating Chen Mo might possess something like a Chaos Stone.

The grade of such items was difficult to assess, but they could be found all over the world. Legend had it that when the Chaos Origin Land was forcibly torn apart by the Gods, some fragments scattered across the world. Finding one was purely a matter of luck. The Alliance had no way to verify where someone might have picked one up, as these things appeared with extreme randomness. In various Mutated Lands in the wilderness, pieces would sometimes appear in a corner as the lands underwent changes. Consequently, the Alliance Hierarchs didn't pay Chen Mo too much mind.

If they truly wished, they could thoroughly investigate Chen Mo's ancestry back eighteen generations. Information about Chen Mo had already been completely investigated when his abnormal descent speed in the instance occurred. The findings: an unmistakable two-star Skeleton Mage and a bona fide Terran.

Only after clearly explaining this anomaly to his teachers was Chen Mo able to return home.

On his way home, Chen Mo's Pioneer abilities sensed two people secretly tailing him. While following, they remained vigilant of their surroundings; it appeared they were intentionally there to protect him covertly.

I'm just a mere two-star Skeleton Mage. Do I really warrant the protection of two experts? The Alliance's upper echelons are truly magnanimous.

Chen Mo wasn't particularly bothered by being tailed and protected. After all, with his abilities, he could easily ascertain all the capabilities of his two followers, and he wasn't afraid of them seeing anything they shouldn't.

Pretending not to have noticed anything, Chen Mo went straight home.

At home, Liu Yiyi couldn't sit idle. She was trying her hand at some elaborate desserts, planning to let Chen Mo taste them once she succeeded.

"Sister Yiyi, what are you making? It smells wonderful." As soon as Chen Mo stepped inside, he was drawn by an enticing aroma, following the sweet scent directly to the kitchen.

Liu Yiyi smiled and said, "Just some little desserts. I'm still experimenting." Only then did she seem to realize and asked in surprise, "Weren't you at the college entrance examination? How are you back so soon?"

"The college entrance examination instance had some issues. The Academy Alliance said they'd prepare a new one for us the day after tomorrow, so they let us return home for now."

"The college entrance examination instance can actually have problems?" Liu Yiyi turned back to her desserts, a puzzled look on her face. "This examination instance has been used for so many years, hasn't it? How could it suddenly malfunction?"

However, this wasn't her primary concern, and she soon became engrossed in developing her new dessert.

Chen Mo tiptoed over, intending to sneak a taste, but Liu Yiyi playfully slapped his hand away.

Seeing Chen Mo's eager expression, Liu Yiyi chuckled, "These are all failed attempts. Once I get them right, I'll let you taste them. Go rest for a bit; I'll call you when they're ready."

"Alright then." Chen Mo smiled and returned to his room.

Back in his room, Chen Mo began to examine the Harvest from this instance run.

Seeing his current 10 Divine Power points, Chen Mo couldn't help but marvel at the might of Divine Power. The difference between having it and not was like night and day.

The efficacy of Divine Power wasn't just in augmenting All Attributes; it also boosted abilities applied to others. However, this boosting effect could be mutually counteracted.

Take, for instance, the time-stop Chen Mo had used. Its base effect was a 3-second time stop. Each point of Divine Power could increase its effectiveness on others by 1%. Chen Mo currently possessed 10 Divine Power points, which, if fully effective, could enhance the duration by 0.3 seconds.
