Necromancer: I Am A Disaster

Chapter 228: Great Harvest; Primordial Rune

Chapter 228: Great Harvest; Primordial Rune

A firelight landed on a Soul Devour Insect Guard, and the Soul Devour Insect Guard unleashed deafening shrieks. At this time, Its scales and hairs stood on end, and its massive body trembled violently. In its entire life, it probably never imagined it would be the target of a soul attack.

Its shrieks caused the entire Spirit Shield to shake, and the burned-open hole expanded by a large chunk.

Lin Moyu willed, and the Skeletal Mages' attacks instantly shot through the hole.

Skill: Damage Curse!

A red light flashed, and the curse seeped in through the hole.

The Soul Devour Insect Guard, with its mere 50,000 points in physique, was no match for the onslaught of Soul Blaze, the Skeletal Mages' barrage of attacks, as well as the Damage Curse's tenfold damage boost. It was obliterated in the blink of an eye.

Consequently, the shield shrank rapidly, loosing a quarter of its size.

Lin Moyu raised his hand and hammered in the final nail in the coffin.

Skill: Corpse Explosion!

The first explosion instantly killed the remaining three Soul Devour Insect Guards. At the same time, the Soul Devour Insect Mother sustained a light injury, and it let out a cry.

The Soul Devour Insect Guards' physique was weak, and so their health was low.

On the other hand, the Soul Devour Insect Mother's physique had reached 200,000 points, making it incredibly resilient. Corpse Explosion could only injure it, not kill it.

The moment the Soul Devour Insect Guards perished, the Spirit Shield disappeared without a trace.

The Skeletal Mages' magic spells rained down on the Soul Devour Insect Mother. The Skeletal Warriors rushed over, brandishing their blades.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother trembled, feeling the grip of death upon her.

The second explosion struck, and the Soul Devour Insect Mother was injured again. This was followed by the third and fourth explosions.

The four explosions triggered by the four Soul Devour Insect Guard's corpses inflicted considerable damage to the Soul Devour Insect Mother.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother convulsed, dropping numerous small mounds. They were all Soul Devour Insect Nestling.

Subsequently, the secret realm rumbled, and vast amounts of soul energy transformed into streaks of blue light that poured into these nestlings.

The nestlings grew rapidly, reaching a height of over 10 meters in just three seconds, resembling the small hills Lin Moyu had seen outside.

Lin Moyu willed, and the Skeletal Warriors halted their assault.

"Since you're tired of living..."

Lin Moyu guessed the Soul Devour Insect Mother's next move—its skill Super Brooding, which utilized the soul energy within the secret realm to rapidly brood Soul Devour Insects.

However, it failed to grasp that the more Soul Devour Insects it spawned, the faster it would meet its doom. Each Soul Devour Insect would become its death warrant. Lin Moyu wasn't the least bit concerned about enemy numbers.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother used its final skill. The hills exploded, and giant Soul Devour Insects rushed out.

These Soul Devour Insect were each six to seven meters tall. Though not as large as the Soul Devour Insect King, but they still looked quite impressive.

In just a few seconds, nearly 100 giant Soul Devour Insects were produced.

By this time, the soul energy that had been accumulating in the secret realm for many years was mostly consumed, and the entire secret realm had turned dimmer.

Lin Moyu didn't bother using Detection to check their attributes. In any case, they were going to die soon anyway.

"Concentrated fire!"

The Skeletal Warriors left the Soul Devour Insect Mother alone and instead turned toward the newly produced giant Soul Devour Insects. The Skeletal Mages' attacks also fell on them.

Lin Moyu raised his hand and pointed, and then red light fell down.

Skill: Damage Curse!

He didn't bother with the Slow Curse, but instead focused on quickly killing a single giant Soul Devour insect. So long as he killed one of them, the rest would fall into place.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother obviously didn't know this. It glimmered with blue light.

Bang!

All the skeletons suffered an attacked.

Skill: Soul Explosion!

However, the skill was of little use, seeing as the Lich Generals cast Legion Heal right after.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother suddenly targeted a Lich General.

Skill: Soul Frost!

That Lich General's Legion Heal was immediately interrupted. Standing there stunned, the Lich General was severely injured and on the brink of death.

Lin Moyu was startled and quickly retrieved it. If the Soul Devour Insect Mother's attack had been a bit stronger, the Lich General would have died.

When the Lich General was retrieved, its associated undead legion vanished too.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother, as if she saw hope at the end of the tunnel, began to target the other Lich Generals! At the same time, it commanded the giant Soul Devour Insects to pay the skeletons no mind and charge at the Lich Generals.

"Dream on!" Lin Moyu barked softly and ran to face one of the giant Soul Devour Insects, and then pointed at it from up close, and his fingertip flashed with white light.

Skill: Bone Fangs!

Within nearly three seconds, Lin Moyu unleashed at least five rounds of Bone Fangs in a row.

A total of 6,000 Bone Fangs hit their target at close range, dealing devastating damage.

The Skeletal Warriors unleashed their skill, while the Skeletal Mages released concentrated fire, and all the damage was amplified tenfold by Damage Curse.

The giant Soul Devour Insect was killed in an instant!

The Soul Devour Insect Mother emitted intense screeching, finally appearing to sense the danger of death. But it was too late. Explosions rose one after another, drowning out its cries.

The giant Soul Devour Insect produced by Super Brooding each became a death warrant to the Soul Devour Insect Mother.

Booming explosions echoed throughout the secret realm.

After one minute, the explosions finally ceased. By this time, the Soul Devour Insect Mother was already dead.

[Killed Soul Devour Insect Mother, EXP +5,600,000]

[Obtained Soul Devour Insect Mother's Egg]

[Obtained Soul Crystal x10]

[Obtained Soul Gem]

[Soul Devour Insect Mother's Egg: an egg of the Soul Devour Insect Mother that can be hatched by a Beast Tamer to become a Soul Devour Insect Mother]

[Soul Crystal: one-time use consumable, permanently increases spirit force by 1,000 points; no usage restriction]

[Soul Gem: permanently raises restoration of spirit force by 100 times]

The giant Soul Devour Insects brought in a considerable amount of EXP. But compared to these rewards, it was not worth mentioning.

The Soul Devour Insect Mother's Egg was very valuable. Even Lin Moyu, who didn't have a full grasp regarding such things, was aware that it was quite valuable. It was much more valuable than the Desert Queen Ant's Egg he obtained in the Tyrant Desert dungeon.

When he took this thing out in the future, it would surely cause a commotion among Beast Tamers.

Soul Crystal was a great item. He had previously obtained five Soul Crystals from the Soul Devour Insect King, and now received another ten from the Soul Devour Insect Mother, bringing his total to fifteen.

With this many Soul Crystals, Lin Moyu's spirit force could be permanently raised by 15,000 points.

Lastly, there was Soul Gem. Lin Moyu never imagined there would be such a treasure in the world, a treasure that could raise your restoration of spirit force by 100 times.

While in the meditative state, the restoration of spirit force was usually around 20 times the natural restoration.

Even when meditating in the academy's Skill Grinding Center, it only increased the restoration to about 50 times.

In the Military Skill Grinding Site, the restoration was higher, roughly 100 times the natural restoration.

In other words, after using the Soul Gem, Lin Moyu's restoration of spirit force would be akin to him being in the Military Skill Grinding Site.

If it could be used together with the Military Skill Grinding Site, he wouldn't have to worry about grinding skills again. Even if it couldn't reach the level of Desert Fruit, it wouldn't be much slower either.

"No wonder Teacher said that the Immemorial Battlefield is full of opportunities."

"I've been here only a couple of days, yet I've already obtained so many treasures."

Lin Moyu's heart swelled with joy.

At the same time as the Soul Devour Insect Mother was killed, a strange change occurred on the Immemorial Battlefield. The light that enveloped the Immemorial Battlefield suddenly changed and became chaotic.

Many people on the Immemorial Battlefield raised their heads and looked at the sky.

A level 60 old man, who had been tempered by the Immemorial Battlefield for many years, spoke gravely, "A world rank has been killed!"

His teammate asked curiously, "Who could possibly kill a world rank boss?"

The old man replied, "I wonder that. I would like to know what world rank boss was killed, and what it had dropped."

"Is it true that world rank bosses will drop special items?"

"Of course it is. And those items are quite useful."

"Really? Then we should go find a world rank boss too."

"Heh." The old man sneered disdainfully, "You think world rank bosses are that easy to find. They are usually hidden in secret realms. It takes a stroke of luck to discover them."

"And..." The old man appeared to recall something, his eyes flashing with a profound shade, "Even if you find one, you might not be able to defeat it. You could end up getting yourself killed instead."

...

In addition to the old man, others who had been adventuring in the Immemorial Battlefield for years knew what the change meant.

Individuals capable of killing a world rank boss shouldn't be trifled with, even if they were from an enemy race.

Lin Moyu wasn't aware of the situation outside.

After the Soul Devour Insect Mother died, the secret realm began to distort and gradually disappeared.

In the future, the secret realm might give rise to another Soul Devour Insect Mother, which in turn would produce a large number of Soul Devour Insects, as well as a new Soul Devour Insect King.

By then, the Soul Devour Insects would occupy large swathes of land once again. This was a never-ending cycle.

It was similar to the Dimensional Battlefield's Elemental Secret Realm, where the Elemental Queen would reappear after a period of time.

Lin Moyu put away his undead legions to let them rest, leaving only two skeletons by his side.

When the secret realm disappeared completely, Lin Moyu saw an unusual thing, emitting a purple glow, sticking out from the ground at an angle. It looked like a Knight shield.

Lin Moyu summoned his undead legions again, and then approached the item. Bai Yiyuan had warned him that there were many dangerous and strange things on the Immemorial Battlefield, that he had to be cautious at all times.

Lin Moyu used Detection.

[Primordial Rune]

[Qualification certificate for entering the Primordial Space]

Lin Moyu was visibly excited.

According to Bai Yiyuan, the Primordial Space was one of the greatest opportunities within the Immemorial Battlefield, where you could obtain all sorts of treasures, skills, and more.

However, entering the Primordial Space was extremely difficult, and its interior was fraught with danger.

Bai Yiyuan had once ventured inside and reaped immense benefits. According to him, it was the Primordial Space that laid the foundation for him to become a godly class user. If he hadn't entered the Primordial Space back then, he might not have been able to become a godly class user.

And according to Meng Anwen, the human race's Detection spell came from the Primordial Space. The Detection spell was of great utility and importance to the human race.

Unexpectedly, a Primal Rune was hidden in the Soul Devour Insects' lair.

Lin Moyu quickly picked up the Primal Rune, which was inscribed with complex and obscure markings and lines.

The Primordial Rune suddenly merged into his body, and then crimson light ejected out from his body and shot into the sky.

All of a sudden, a dagger emerged from the surrounding space and stabbed toward Lin Moyu!
