Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

Chapter 318: Chapter 247 The "Rebirth" Skill Fails, The Epic Boss That Cannot Be Resurrected_2

Unable to directly communicate and subdue it, Zi Liyuan decided to kill it and then use the Necromancer's "Resurrection" skill to raise it again.

"Roar!"

The golden Behemoth roared deeply in understanding, its movements less violent now, using another claw to pierce the opponent's chest with a tip.

That wasn't enough; after piercing the mutated imp's chest, the sharp claw twisted a few times to the left and right.

In Zi Liyuan's eyes, a damage value of over ten million suddenly burst above the mutated imp's head, followed by continual million-point damage bleed.

In just a few seconds, the already critically wounded Epic Boss perished under the claws of the golden Behemoth.

After finishing off the mutated imp, the golden Behemoth casually threw the corpse in front of Zi Liyuan and then gave a challenging glance at Lao Tie who had just been sent flying before returning to its two companions.

"Come on, resurrect, my... little imp!"

Muttering the complex incantations of the "Resurrection" spell, he waved his magic wand and pointed at the corpse of the mutated imp on the ground.

1 second...

10 seconds...

30 seconds...

One minute...

The scene fell silent for a moment, with each undead boss, along with Fan Yuer and Daris, holding a trace of expectation in their eyes.

Expecting the birth of a new member of the Epic Boss team.

Just then...

[Ding, Resurrection skill failed! No spirit fragment remains within this epic corpse!]

The system notification rang in his ears like an evil chant, leaving him at a loss.

"Damn! You're telling me, this Epic Boss I just killed doesn't have a single spirit fragment left in its body? Are you kidding me?!"

?(???)?

Lord Zi cursed loudly, and with a skeptical face, squatted down to inspect the mutated imp's corpse.

Placing his hand on the imp's forehead, his Spirit seeped into the mutated imp's mind through the physical touch.

For undead creatures, the soul fire typically resides within their heads.

Moreover, when this mutated imp was alive, its eyes were two tufts of dark green flame, indicating that its soul fire truly resided within its mind.

Yet as Lord Zi's Spirit scanned the imp's head up and down, side to side, over a dozen times without finding the slightest trace of a spirit fragment, he had no choice but to expand his search to encompass the imp's entire body.

After thoroughly inspecting it from top to bottom, inside and out, Lord Zi could only give up reluctantly.

"How is this possible, the spirit dissipated completely right after death, not leaving even a trace? This is too abnormal!"

Without any spirit fragments, even with a complete corpse, there was no way to resurrect it.

"?!"

He let out an expletive and promptly stored the Epic Boss's corpse in his Spatial Backpack before turning his attention to the pile of loot on the ground.

It must be said, although he couldn't resurrect the mutated imp to become a minion again, the quality of the dropped items wasn't insignificant, just not as high as imagined.

"All silver hero equipment, items, and materials—it really makes me wonder if this creature was truly an Epic Boss."

Out of the hundreds of dropped items, ten were equipment pieces, ten were items, and the other eighty were materials.

"Master, I feel that the strength of this mutated imp did not reach that of a true Fourth-Order Epic Boss," Daris said timely as she heard Lord Zi grumbling nonstop.

"Not reaching the strength of a Fourth-Order Epic Boss? Are you sure?"

While instructing Fan Yuer to collect the dropped materials, Lord Zi examined the set of silver hero gear as he questioned Daris.

"I am sure. A Fourth-Order Epic Boss couldn't be this weak; even a magic-based Boss wouldn't be utterly defenseless when cornered by a physical attacker."

The sight of the newly mutated imp being completely overpowered by the three golden Behemoths was too painful to watch.

Even the weakest Epic Boss wouldn't be entirely bound by these restraints, let alone a Fourth-Order Epic Boss, who would never be completely immobilized by the spatial constraints here.

Take her, for example, if she had not evolved into the Black Dragon King and was still just at the Lord Boss level, falling into the hands of a golden Behemoth would mean nothing but certain death.

Having become the Black Dragon King and evolved into an Epic Boss, even though she had not fully accustomed herself to the power of the epic Giant Dragon, she could still manage to escape with her life at a certain cost.

But this mutated imp had absolutely no ability to escape; once approached by a golden Behemoth, it was entirely a one-sided slaughter, devoid of any ability to resist.

Furthermore, the power of its spells was really not that great and nowhere near the level expected of an Epic Boss's abilities.

"So, does that mean this thing is a fake Fourth-Order Epic Boss?"

This is the Necro Realm, and the previous ruler of this secret realm must have been a Necromancer.

Necromancers could be considered the best at manipulating souls among all death-related professions.

So even though this mutated imp evolved into an Epic Boss, it actually failed to display the strength that an Epic Boss should possess.

In such a case, it's very likely that the soul of the mutated imp was inherently defective and completely incompatible with its body.

Considering the use of the "Rebirth" skill without even a fragment of a soul remaining.

There can only be one explanation: this mutated imp merely had the template of an Epic Boss, which allowed its body to evolve into one, but the soul within was not the original soul of the mutated imp!

It's possible that when this mutated imp was created, it was already dead, and the creator directly extracted the soul of some beast and injected it into the corpse of this Epic Boss, and then through some means, created this monster.

Verifying this speculation is actually not difficult at all.

Lord Zi's gaze immediately landed on the three Frost Giants, or more precisely, on their claws.

Within the six icicles, six Lord-level Undead imps were sealed, all weak and vulnerable, captured in ice.

"Kill one Undead demon imp and one Undead fel imp, I want to check if there is any remnant of the imp's soul inside them."

He directly commanded one of the Frost Giants.

The Frost Giant that received the command didn't utter a word; a breath of cold air blew out from its maw.

Under this breath of cold air, the icicles in its two claws melted into icy water, releasing the two Undead imps contained within.

But before the two Undead imps could make any move, the Frost Giant mimicked the golden Behemoth's action and abruptly clenched its claws.

The immense force crushed and compacted them, and almost instantly, a "crack" of shattering sounds erupted.

Amidst the soaring damage figures, the two Undead imps did not even manage to let out a scream before they were squelched dead.

The Frost Giant casually tossed the two mangled corpses of the Undead imps at Lord Zi's feet, then rejoined its companions.

"You are really violent."

Shaking his head in resignation, Lord Zi stepped forward, placing a hand on the forehead of each Undead imp.

Through the contact of the limbs, the spirit emerged and entered directly into the two imps, scanning multiple times in succession.

"Just as I thought, no trace of the soul remained."

The guess had been confirmed correct, these imps, when transformed into Undead beings, must have had their souls outright shattered to oblivion.

The creator then must have taken another soul and injected it into these few experimental subjects, bringing them back to life using some method unknown to Lord Zi.

However, these resurrected monsters, even if housed in the body of an Epic Boss, were unable to fully exhibit the complete power of one.

The same situation occurred even with Lord Bosses.

"Useless test subjects, they hold no value to be commanded; just kill them all."

With no use for these Lord-level Undead imps, they were worthless to him.

Following the command to exterminate, the other two Frost Giants unhesitatingly dealt lethal blows to the Undead imps in their grasp.

"As expected, the quality of the loot is really trash."
