Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

"A pseudo Evil God's aura can at most conjure a few Fourth Order epic beings, no need for us to worry,"

Not to mention having the template of a Tier-4 Peak Legendary Boss, just this big group of epic beasts at the Fourth Order Peak alone could pin the enemy to the ground and rub them hard into the dirt.

Literally rub their flesh and bones apart!

"Can you locate the source of the pseudo Evil God's aura?"

The Spider Queen's words gave Lord Zi a bit of insight into the Evil God.

However, with the power of the seventh rank, he still couldn't contend with it at his current Stage Four Peak, so he needed to gather more trump cards!

"The ability to sense the presence of the aura is because the Sea of Realms protects new lords, preparing you to face the pseudo Evil God. The exact location, however, cannot be perceived,"

The Spider Queen casually said while surveying the surrounding territory.

"Alright, we'll eventually meet them, and when we do, we'll just kill them,"

Since the location couldn't be determined, they could only deal with it later.

"Orochi, take the Hydra Monsters and clear out that dungeon in the river to the north,"

Zi Liyuan looked up at the Orochi chaotically flying in the sky and, upon seeing several snakeheads chewing on Skeletons, his face darkened and he issued the command with a hint of annoyance.

Damn it, did they think because he summoned Skeletons so easily they could just eat a few for a snack?

No wonder this creature was sealed under Mount Fuji for a thousand years; there was a reason!

"As you command, master!"

Seeing the displeased look in Lord Zi's eyes, the Orochi's eight heads shrank back, hurriedly swallowing the bones it had been chewing on, and then it let out a roar at the three Hydra Monsters below before swiftly flying away from the territory following the river.

The three Hydra Monsters that had been rampaging through the territory gave a disgruntled hiss at Orochi and, like bulldozers, plowed through the ground, creating a trail as they charged towards the north.

Watching the Hydra Monster nearly crash into the Magic Library, Zi Liyuan's expression grew even darker.

"Damn it, can't you all be more careful?"

After muttering a curse, Zi Liyuan returned to the grand task of synthesizing White Jade Skeletons.

Building walls was a big project and couldn't be completed as quickly as other constructions, so he needed to create more White Jade Skeletons with the architectural talent. Read exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

Meanwhile, the territory, under Xiao Guang's planning, began to take shape around the Lord's Mansion at the center and extending to the edges of the land.

Industrial zone, residential area, cemetery, recruitment building area, trading market, warehouse area, council hall zone, castle area...

One by one, they were planned and corresponding constructible buildings sprouted from the ground.

The White Jade Skeleton construction brigade, under Xiao Guang's command, maximized the building speed.

In just dozens of minutes, the territory that had been almost completely destroyed once again became bustling with buildings.

At this moment, Zi Liyuan was simultaneously sacrificing to create various talented White Jade Skeletons and checking the system notification interface for messages he had not finished reading earlier.

[Lord Zi Liyuan, you've wagered 20,500 Spirit Crystals, participating in the "Will Zi Liyuan Be the First to Upgrade His Lord's Mansion to Level 10?" betting pool, betting that Zi Liyuan will be the first to upgrade his Lord's Mansion to Level 10, bet placed successfully!]

[Ding! "Will Zi Liyuan Be the First to Upgrade His Lord's Mansion to Level 10?" betting pool concluded, Lord Zi Liyuan has successfully achieved the first upgrade of the Lord's Mansion to Level 10!]

[Ding! Betting pool concluded, settlement of wagers in progress...]

[Ding! The total count of Spirit Crystals in the betting pool is 1,326,596, with 21,200 wagered on Zi Liyuan's success. You have wagered 20,500 Spirit Crystals, entitling you to a split of 96.7% of the total Spirit Crystals...]

[Ding, Lord Zi Liyuan, you have earned a total profit of 1,282,818 Spirit Crystals from the Sea of Realms betting pool! Please collect from the gambling establishment in your territory!]

Seeing the specific number of Spirit Crystals he had earned, the corners of Zi Liyuan's mouth turned up once again.

Who said it wasn't satisfying to legitimately rob other lords of their money?

After quickly scanning the rest of the system messages and finding nothing of interest, Zi Liyuan turned his attention back to the altar.

A sacrifice every five seconds, over thirty thousand Little Skeletons—a true major project.

Fortunately, it was going smoothly, but Lord Zi was not one to sit still, so he opened his skill panel and started to look at the Necromancer's skill tree.

Upon the lifting of the seal, the inherent skill tree of the profession template adapted accordingly.

For example, the most basic summoning skill "Skeleton Summoning" was still Level 25, but continued to summon the most basic and useless plain Skeleton Subjects, with Level 1 capped and all attributes utter rubbish.

Different summons that he enhanced through the mutation with a Nether Crystal Core showed conspicuous changes.

Take the Skeleton Knight and Skeleton Archer that Lord Zi used to favor, which were first enhanced with a Nether Crystal Core.

The skill descriptions now uniformly categorized them under mutant skeletons, though their template had become that of a green elite regular monster.

With more essence and potential than a normal elite monster, they were considered a rare species of their tier, but since Skeletons are inherently the cannon fodder, just appearing among rare species was quite an accomplishment.

The various Skeleton summon skills enhanced with a second Nether Crystal Core, however, were of even higher quality.

All possessed the blue rare monster template, with increased essence and potential once again, and within rare species of the same tier, they no longer sat at the bottom but rather in the lower-middle rank.
