Chapter 30: Numbers Against A Necromancer
..
There wasn't much content in the notebook.
From the tone of the narrator, he should be a low-level researcher at a laboratory in the Antu Empire.
His research is on Psionic.
It was an extremely powerful ability that was different from magic.
It was mentioned in the notebook.
The Antu Empire seemed to have captured a batch of experimental subjects that were very suitable for studying psionic powers.
Unfortunately, the level of the narrator was too low, so he did not have the opportunity to come into contact with them. He did not even know what kind of creatures they were.
He was in charge of the theoretical part.
However, in the Multiverse, only the proud and aloof Giza Race held the supreme secret of psionic power.
Although there were a few handwritten copies from the Giza people in the laboratory of the Antu Empire, their research on psionic theory was still in its infancy.
However, the impatient upper echelons of the empire had ordered them to conduct the psionic experiments ahead of time.
After a certain experiment.
A swarm of Zergs that came out of nowhere attacked the laboratory, and most of the people became infected by the Violent Zerg.
The Dawn they were on had activated the self-destruct sequence immediately after the invasion of the Zerg swarm.
It was under such circumstances that the narrator wrote his final words.
..
" Youni from Group 3 was also infected. She treated me to Pettigrew biscuits and took care of me several times at work, but I couldn't confess my feelings to her until the end. Looking at her twisted and crazy face across the glass, my heart ached for a long time until I saw her husband's infected body.
..
"Everyone is dead.
"I locked myself in the cold storage. I would rather freeze to death than become a zombie-like thing, but the cold air soon disappeared. I soon realized that someone had cut off the power supply, but who could have done it?
"A ghost?
"I don't know.
"I don't want to think about it either.
"I want to save myself!
"But I'm on a fucking starship that's wandering outside the Empire's territory!
"No one can save me!
"If I had known that the apocalypse would come so suddenly, I wouldn't have pretended to reject Baz when he invited me to a striptease show.
"F * ck!
"I suddenly remembered my childhood dream of sleeping with a large number of women of different races. How did I end up as a mediocre researcher?
"This is so sad!"
The above was the second to last page of the notebook.
The last page of the book made one's heart tremble.
..
"I have a woman now, hahaha!
"She is very voluptuous and beautiful. Her charm is not inferior to Youni's. The key was that it felt very comfortable to be with her.
"For her, I should pull myself together.
"We will definitely be able to escape and be together forever.
"This is my promise.
"My queen!"
..
The notebook stopped abruptly.
Matthew's heart was creeped out.
At the last moment of his life, was this researcher hallucinating, or did something shocking happen?
Matthew did not know.
He only knew that the other party would not be able to escape the fate of being infected.
"So, The Dawn is a starship. After becoming a hive, the starship crashed here for various reasons…"
Ella had mentioned that the Zerg Nest was part of the Moonlight Woodland, the material plane, and other worlds.
From this point of view.
Perhaps the swarm of zergs had chosen this place as their landing point due to their 'consciousness'.
At this cross-section of many worlds, it was more convenient to infiltrate many worlds at the same time.
Matthew thought calmly.
Combining the knowledge he had learned in his previous life.
He silently raised the difficulty level of this hive in his heart.
The instance dungeons created by the Antu Empire were definitely not that simple!
According to Ella, the Zerg Guard was the strongest unit of the Zerg.
However, Matthew was sure that there were more dangerous creatures hidden below... Creatures like the Zerg Queen or King.
" After all, the Antu Empire is famous for her hubris. Originally, it was prosperous enough to dominate an entire universe, but it set up thousands of laboratories and recruited a bunch of monsters, eventually causing the complete destruction of its own universe…"
Matthew shook his head helplessly.
He put away the researcher's notes.
At this moment, the skeleton soldiers had already piled up all the infected bodies together.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Matthew sprinkled a handful of fiery dragon oil from afar.
Whoosh!
A small flame lit up.
The pile of corpses started burning intensely.
In less than ten seconds.
The infected and the larvae were burned clean.
The flames dissipated.
Only black marks were left on the ground.
"It burns fast and takes only a short time. The arsonist's Fiery Dragon Oil is indeed a necessary tool for burning corpses and destroying evidence."
Matthew praised in his heart.
What was even more amazing was that the Fiery Dragon Oil only left behind bones.
As long as he needed it, he could summon more skeleton soldiers at any time!
..
Matthew led the group forward.
The area in front of them was empty. It was obvious that someone had swept through it.
At the fork in the road.
Ella rubbed her sleepy eyes and said, "These three paths all lead to the fifth floor. The only difference is the different entrances. However, you have to take note that below the fifth floor is the activity space of the Violent Zerg Guards. They are very terrifying and are not comparable to ordinary infected entities."
Matthew nodded. If it was before, he might have chosen to move forward boldly. However, since he knew that this was the Antu Empire's doing, he would not charge forward blindly.
" The left and right roads have already been taken. It should be Samantha's doing. With her and Eli's combat power, it shouldn't be a problem to clear the local infected, but they won't have an easy time as I do."
With that in mind, Matthew decided to take the middle path.
Before entering the fifth level, he had to clear all the Zergs in his way!
However, before he could give the order to the skeleton soldiers, intense footsteps suddenly came from the next tunnel!
Whoosh!
A yellow and black phantom jumped out of the tunnel.
The moment she bumped into Matthew and the others, she cursed, "Damn it!"
Matthew took a closer look. It was a leopard.
The leopard's forelimbs touched the ground and then bounced up. It walked upright like a human. The spots and animal skin instantly faded, revealing a beautiful figure.
"Return to where you came from immediately. I'll try to buy you some time. Remember, don't look back. They're here for me, but if you're discovered, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape!"
Samantha said hurriedly and crouched down on the ground. She didn't move, but in the blink of an eye, a lifelike leopard appeared in front of everyone.
"Samantha? What happened?" Ella was shocked.
"It's the Zerg Guards. I don't know why, but those Zerg Guards actually left their territory to ambush me today. I almost fell for it…Hurry up and stop asking!" The leopard shouted angrily.
Then, without looking back, she ran back into the tunnel.
Deep in the tunnel.
All kinds of strange roars could be heard.
"Matthew, we have to help..." Before Ella could finish, Matthew transformed into a raven and flew up to the top of the cave!
"Wait for me!" Ella followed in panic.
However, Matthew did not fly far.
He only found a high platform where he could stand and observe the situation while deploying his skeleton soldiers.
Fierce fighting sounds came from the tunnel.
After a while.
The leopard's figure appeared again.
There were three bloody wounds on her body, one of which had worms crawling on it!
"Ella, why haven't you left yet?!"
The leopard saw the owl in the stands and was shocked and angry.
"The skeleton soldiers move very slowly. I'm afraid we won't be able to outrun the enemy. I want to know how many Zerg Guards are chasing after you," Matthew said.
Samantha was stunned when she heard Matthew's voice. Before she could respond, a large group of people rushed out of the tunnel!
At that moment.
Ella could not help but scream.
Matthew was also shocked by the ugly appearance of the monster at the front.
What kind of monster was that?
It was like a monster made of countless human legs and bodies, but the joints were not sewn carefully. The iron wires barely held the joints together, and the Zerg Larva crawled out one by one.
Its skin was purple-red, and its speed was extremely fast. Wherever it passed by, there would be a large pool of yellow-green mucus on the ground, making people feel extremely nauseous.
..
[Violent Zerg Guard (LV10)]
..
And behind this monster were more than a dozen Infected Ones.
This number had indeed exceeded the limit that the skeleton squad could handle under normal circumstances!
"Go. I'll stall for time. Eli will be here soon. Don't worry about me!"
Samantha shouted.
As she spoke, she growled at the guard.
After successfully attracting the other party's attention, she went around the terrain and played hide-and-seek with the other party.
The skeleton soldiers were engaged in a battle with the infected.
The scene was extremely chaotic.
However, in this situation, the lack of individual strength of the skeleton soldiers was magnified infinitely.
In less than half a minute.
Three skeleton soldiers were suppressed by the infected in a one-on-one battle!
Beep beep beep!
More footsteps came from the tunnel.
The second Violent Zerg Guard quickly appeared in front of everyone.
Unlike the first Violent Zerg Guard, which was almost entirely made up of human thighs, this Violent Zerg Guard had countless arms.
They looked extremely evil.
"Soldier!"
Matthew shouted.
In the shadows.
A skeleton that was moving forward while twisting its hips suddenly attacked.
Like a ghost, he appeared behind the second guard, and the short sword in his hand slashed out like a storm.
In the blink of an eye.
He had cut off all the stitches on the guard's body!
Pa!
The monster actually turned into a pile of minced meat on the spot!
Hundreds of larvae jumped out.
They shouted and pounced on the skeleton soldiers and Samantha!
Very quickly, the space became too small for the leopard to bounce around.
She was careless, and several wounds appeared on Samantha's body.
"Samantha, get over here."
Matthew's voice came from the high platform.
She glanced at Matthew.
Matthew had returned to his human form and was holding a shiny magic book in his hand.
She hesitated for a moment, and finally, under Ella's loud persuasion and the effect of the divine badge on Matthew's chest, she approached him at an extremely fast speed.
Ten steps behind her, there were two infected ones chasing after her.
"You'd better have a way to escape. Otherwise, I can only take Ella away..." the female Druid said quickly.
Matthew did not answer.
He lifted the book slightly and started chanting.
Puff!
A group of mysterious magic words floated in the air.
The two infected ones charged at them, but they seemed to have hit a wall, and their heads were bleeding!
Not only that, but their bodies also began to weaken rapidly, as if a force was sapping their vitality!
..
[Defensive Psalm: You have cast the spells Rune of Guard and Protection from Good and Evil.]
..
"Protective spell? Aren't you a necromancer?" Samantha was surprised.
"Of course, I'm a bona fide Necromancer." Matthew smiled." And you'll soon know why people say that you should never assume you have a numbers advantage against a necromancer!"
In the next second.
Matthew suddenly let out a sharp syllable.
In the chaotic battle.
A lotus-like gray fog suddenly bloomed from the body of a skeleton soldier that was about to fall.
A large amount of negative energy poured out!
There was a loud bang.
The skeleton soldier exploded. freewebnovel.c om
It directly killed several infected ones and even more larvae around it.
However…
The real explosion had just begun.

[You have used the spell 'Last Dance' on Skeleton Soldier No. 9!]
..
[You have started using consecutive Corpse Explosion!」
