Only Noblemtl

Episode 186

Death enveloped Baek Sa-jun.

He felt a strong power overflowing from within him. That power manifested itself in the form of black bones, which soon wrapped around Baek Sa-jun’s entire body like armor.

A black aura flowed out from him.

-Whaaaaaaah!

The black energy flowing out from Baek Sa-jun covered all directions. It dyed the ground black, darkened vision, and soon permeated the undead as well.

To all undead in this area.

“What a ridiculous thing to do!”

Xiong Wei felt his skin go numb.

His body reacted on its own to the tremendous morale he felt from Baek Sa-jun. However, Xiong Wei tried to close the distance with his fighting spirit burning.

We have to kill that guy quickly.

It was from that judgment.

“Baek Sa-jun!”

– Kiyaaaaah!

Xiong Wei kicked the ground.

There were countless zombies following him. The distance would be shortened in an instant. Baek Sa-jun knew this, but he didn’t do anything special.

There was no need to take any action, exactly.

“Follow my orders.”

Because just one word was enough.

Xiong Wei frowned. Follow orders? Are you talking to your own undead?

The answer was quickly apparent.

“Attack the one who was your master.”

“What?”

The target of that command was none other than the undead served by Xiong Wei.

But that’s impossible.

– Phew!

A necromancer can only control the undead he summons. He cannot give any orders to undead summoned by others.

Those were the rules. The rules of necromancy.

– Kiaaaah!

“Ugh, gasp!”

Now, that rule has been broken.

The zombies’ eyes turned black. They turned their bodies and attacked without a moment’s hesitation.

To his master, Xiong Wei.

“Ugh, ugh! What, are you doing… … !”

All kinds of weapons pierced through Xiong Wei.

The swords, spears, and axes held by the zombies pierced and cut through Xiong Wei. It happened so quickly that he couldn’t even react.

The zombies were too close to avoid again.

“You, your master… is me! Why, are you attacking me… Kyaak! You idiots!”

“Master? No, not now.”

Xiong Wei gave orders to the zombies.

But it didn’t work. The zombies ignored his orders and only followed Baek Sa-jun’s.

As if he were the master.

Attempts to summon him back also proved fruitless.

“I am the master now.”

“Kuaaaah!”

It was because of the effect of that took ownership of the undead and ruled them.

It’s a powerful effect. Naturally, it won’t last that long.

But what does that matter?

“Kill Xiong Wei.”

“This guy, oooooooh!”

Xiong Wei would have died before then.

The zombies were created using the corpses of the hunters he hunted, especially the best ones.

They are undead with such great power. It came back to him like a boomerang.

And one more thing.

“Get up again.”

It has the effect of a death sentencer.

Baek Sa-jun snapped his fingers. Then, the undead fragments scattered on the ground began to squirm. They were the undead fragments that Xiong Wei had destroyed.

And after a while.

– Gooooooooo!

– Th, ahhh… … !

The destroyed undead have been restored.

The Iron Golem, which had been nothing but shards of steel, roared as it regained its full form, and the ghouls came back to life. The Knights of the Ebony were no different.

It was because of the effect of .

Effect that restores destroyed undead.

‘No way. This can’t go on…!’

Xiong Wei quickly grasped the situation.

There were literally enemies on all sides. Even if I summoned new undead, I would lose control of them.

There was no point in destroying these guys.

Because it will be restored again just like before.

‘I have to think of a way.’

Xiong Wei moved, spitting out blood.

The speculation of the dead destroyed the weapons of the zombies that had pierced him. He quickly thought about what to do at this moment while catching his breath.

There was only one way.

‘Kill that guy.’

All we have to do is kill Baek Sa-jun, the person responsible for the current incomprehensible situation.

There was no other way.

If you detonate your speculation in an instant, you can close the distance between you and him in an instant.

That’ll kill him in one go.

“Ugh, huh… … .”

– Kwaaaaah!

The undead are attacking.

The sight was like a tidal wave. A huge tidal wave of death engulfed Xiong Wei and buried him.

He crouched down and endured the pain.

And waited for the right time.

When Baek Sa-jun, confident of victory, lets his guard down due to these undead blocking his vision.

‘now.’

There was no need to wait that long.

Completely buried by the undead, Xiong Wei used all the fraud he had to wager.

A huge amount of speculation poured out from him, pushing away the undead that covered the surrounding area.

A gap created in an instant.

“Khaaaaah!”

– Kwaaaaang!

Xiong Wei kicked the ground.

A body shot out with a loud noise. The speed was so fast that no one could react.

Even the undead and the servants who protect their master.

The old man turned into a single ray of light and reached Baek Sa-jun, concentrating his energy on his fist.

“Die!”

And without any preparatory movements, he threw his fist with all his might towards Baek Sa-jun.

A fist that travels through the air.

The blow struck Baek Sa-jun’s forehead.

“what……!”

It seemed like it was touching.

No, it definitely hit. Xiong Wei’s fist hit Bai Shijun’s forehead with a firm strike.

But at that very moment.

– Swish!

Baek Sa-jun’s body became blurry.

His entire body became blurry as if he had become a ghost, and his fist filled with fighting spirit flew through the air.

With his old and worn robe fluttering, Xiong Wei raised his head and looked at Bai Sajun.

His face was full of laughter.

“I got a good relic this time.”

Baek Sa-jun, who had become hazy like a ghost, took a step back. As if taking turns with him, his followers condemned Xiong Wei for attacking their master.

A merciless attack that covered the entire body. Numerous chains appeared one after another, binding the criminal.

“It’s over, Xiong Wei.”

“Yes, you… … !”

Baek Sa-jun swung his sickle.

Crunch! The day of the beheading. With that, Xiong Wei’s body, which had lost its strength, sagged.

It was a rather pitiful end for a notorious rogue who was known as one of the three evils in China.

“Then why are you coveting other people’s things?”

Baek Sa-jun snorted.

***

– The second power has been unlocked.

– Thanatos’ relic, , has regained its power. You can use the relic.

Xiong Wei is a strong enemy.

The Three Evils of China. They are on par with the Ten Heroes. They are beings that even Baek Sa-jun cannot easily guarantee victory over. That was the case until he came here.

It wasn’t like that for Baek Sa-jun now.

Especially since he’s a necromancer.

‘You would never have imagined something like this.’

Baek Sa-jun looked around at the zombies around him.

To be honest, even Baek Sa-jun had a hard time imagining the situation where he would lose control of the undead he was serving. had such an absurd effect.

All kinds of buffs were a bonus.

“You killed a difficult guy easily.”

Xiong Wei would have been quite a difficult opponent if he had been fought in a proper manner. However, because of my previous job, I was in a hurry and was able to kill him more easily than I thought.

The effect of the relics was also great there.

[Robe of the Reaper (Legendary)]

· A relic imbued with the power of Thanatos. Only his authorized agents may wear it.

· All abilities +40.

· Defense +150, Magic Defense +250.

· You can use [Ghost Formation], which turns your body into a ghost and allows you to avoid all attacks.

· This item grows with its owner.

During the fight with Xiong Wei, the second power was released, allowing the use of the relic.

For a legendary, the effects were rather dull. However, the effect of becoming a ghost was really good. It was an effect that completely ignored enemy attacks.

It might be useful.

– Absorption is in progress.

– Time remaining: 15 minutes.

A message appeared before my eyes.

There are still 15 minutes left. There is no need to go outside. You can just wait here until the absorption is completely finished.

And in the meantime, there was work to be done.

“Xiong Wei.”

Xiong Wei died with half of his body cut off.

It was the price for being so greedy. But there was something I could gain from him coming here. Xiong Wei is a named character who also appeared in the original.

What that means is… … .

[Xiong Wei’s Bones (Unique)]

· A bone imbued with the power of Xiong Wei. When used, it grants the gift ‘Dead Man’s Fight’ to one of his followers.

The bone is dropped.

A bone containing Xiong Wei’s gift. The he had written was still inside.

This gift is quite useful.

‘It’s okay if I use it for the purpose I borrow it for.’

It can also be used to strengthen the clan.

There was no need to worry about who to give it to. Baek Sa-jun gave the bone to Magnus.

Bones seeping into Magnus.

-Give ‘Shion Wei’s Bones’ to ‘Magnus’. Remove the gift ‘Magic Enhancement’ that the relevant faction has and create a new ‘Dead Man’s Speculation’.

[Speculation of the Dead]

· Rating: Unique.

· Uses fraud to create strong speculation. Strength, agility, and stamina abilities are strengthened according to the fraud ability of the followers. However, these strengthened abilities cannot exceed the level of the fraud ability.

· When attacking using the body, you can release a burst of energy and unlock exclusive skills.

· Skill, : Focuses fighting spirit in your palm and releases it when striking an enemy. Has the effect of ignoring the enemy’s defense.

· Skill, : Soar into the sky and then slam the ground with your feet. The powerful shockwave that follows destroys nearby enemies.

Baek Sa-jun touched the corner of his mouth.

“A lich who uses a gun and martial arts… … .”

It’s hip, but it’s too hip.

In many ways, Magnus was the perfect fit. The other clans had balanced abilities, but Magnus only had high morale.

If you have this, your other abilities will also increase significantly.

It will definitely help a lot.

– Ughhhhhhhh… …

Magnus turned around and lightly clenched his fists. Black aura rose from his body.

It was written by Xiong Wei.

“Are you satisfied?”

– Ugh.

Magnus nodded.

If you’re satisfied, that’s enough. Baek Sa-jun stretched out and looked at the place where the portal was.

The portal opened, but no one came through.

‘Either Xiong Wei has killed all the fanatics of the Salvation Church, or he is still fighting.’

It’s probably one of the two.

I would have liked it to be the former if possible, but considering the time it would take, it seemed more likely to be the latter.

It means that if you go out, you’ll fight again.

“Skeleton, take the items. You too.”

– Ugh… … .

– Crunch.

Baek Sa-jun picked up the items dropped by Shiong Wei and headed to the portal with his followers.

There is no time to rest.

After the transition is over, you will have to fight again.

“Crushed by the disaster I brought upon myself… … .”

Baek Sa-jun sighed and stood in front of the portal.

And I sat down in front of it and waited until the timer floating in front of me reached 0 minutes.

There were only about ten minutes left. It wasn’t that long, but it felt strangely long.

He waited with his eyes closed.

– Absorption is in progress.

– Time remaining: 15 seconds.

How long have I waited like that?

A message appeared, breaking the silence.

– Absorption is complete.

– Congratulations. You have achieved all the conditions of the previous event, ‘God of Death’. You have absorbed all the power contained in the relic and the Scythe of Thanatos.

– I feel my body changing.

A huge fraud occurred at Baek Sa-jun.

A thick aura covered all around. With his eyes closed, he quietly felt himself changing.

And when that change is over.

– Change class to .

Baek Sa-jun opened his eyes.
