Skills with no cooldown? I become the Undead Scourge! - Chapter 57

Unfortunately, by the time Lu Ran and the others exited the dungeon, the Deathmatch room had already vanished.

It was probably the same as yesterday; likely gone for a meal.

“In that case, let’s also go eat. After the meal, we’ll see if he dares to create another room,” Yu Qingcang said.

Meanwhile, in Sakura…

Nana Mi was sitting by a small stream, leisurely sipping sake.

The immense pressure from the past few days had left her feeling unsettled, but now she could finally relax.

“Thinking about it, it’s quite ridiculous. I was so tense over an ordinary Necromancer, even going to great lengths to obtain the Eight-Eyed Umbrella,” Nana Mi mocked herself.

“After all, he’s just a Necromancer. President, will you still attempt the 62nd floor next?” her attendant asked, refilling Nana Mi’s sake cup.

“No rush. I currently hold an absolute advantage on the 61st floor. Even Yu Qingcara, though he seems only two floors behind, remember that the 60th floor is a major hurdle. He won’t clear it anytime soon,” Nana Mi said smugly.

Her characteristic arrogance was showing once again.

As for that Necromancer, Nana Mi had already stopped paying attention.

Because if the other party was deliberately pacing themselves—clearing one floor in the morning, another at night—there was no reason for them to stop this morning.

The only possible reason for stopping now was that they couldn’t progress any further!

“Besides, if that Necromancer was truly so strong, why would they ignore the provocation from Eagle Union’s deathmatch room? Put simply, they’re just not strong enough. A weak Necromancer will never amount to much,” Nana Mi analyzed.

Having said that, and seemingly convinced by her own reasoning, she let out a light laugh.

Happily, she picked up her cup and continued drinking.

After Lu Ran and the others finished their meal, they returned to the dungeon hall.

As soon as they entered, Qin Wuyao hurried over to Lu Ran.

“That jerk disbanded the room before lunch, but ten minutes ago, he created another one!” she told him.

Instead of being disappointed, Lu Ran’s eyes lit up with excitement.

He dares to show his face again?

Excellent!

I’ve been waiting for you!

Immediately, Lu Ran quickened his pace to the Colosseum interface panel.

Looking up, it was the same room, but the room name had changed again, still containing insults towards Longxia.

After global datafication, whatever exists is deemed permissible; the data laws do not intervene.

Again, there was only one person in the room.

Again, no one dared to challenge.

Lu Ran headed straight for the Colosseum’s teleportation array.

“Lu Ran! You must be careful!” Yu Qingcang shouted worriedly.

Liu Xinxin also walked over to Lu Ran.

She affectionately patted his shoulder and said, “The rules of the Deathmatch are different from the regular Colosseum. After you enter and accept the challenge, it doesn’t start immediately. Both sides have a three-minute preparation period. Use that time to prepare, assess your opponent’s abilities. No matter what, ensuring your survival is the priority. Killing the opponent is secondary, understand?”

“Understood, Sister Xinxin. I get it,” Lu Ran nodded seriously.

He then looked at the other three guild leaders and Qin Wuyao, giving them a reassuring glance.

Only then did he continue towards the teleportation array.

But suddenly,

Noisy voices erupted around them: “Someone has accepted the challenge!”

Huh?

Lu Ran was stunned; he hadn’t entered yet!

The four guild leaders also looked up in surprise at the panel.

Sure enough!

A second person had now appeared in the room that previously held only one.

Name: Gao Yang; Level: 58; Class: Summoner; Guild: Battle Flag Nation-Protecting Army; Nation: Longxia!

“Is he from your Nation-Protecting Army?” Yu Qingcang frowned.

“Dammit! I explicitly ordered all members of the Nation-Protecting Army not to accept the challenge! This Gao Yang!” Lei Tai’s face darkened.

He knew Gao Yang was a member of the Battle Flag Nation-Protecting Army.

But he hadn’t expected that, despite his orders, someone would still go.

“Gao Yang has a fiery temper. He probably couldn’t stand the repeated provocations anymore, but this…” Lei Tai sighed deeply, his expression grim.

At this moment, everyone was focused on the Deathmatch panel.

1V1!

“It’s Gao Yang! The Summoner expert!”

“This is what you expect from the Nation-Protecting Army! They have guts!”

“What’s the use of guts? Can he win? Isn’t this just feeding the opponent and making them even more arrogant?”

“Sigh, too impulsive. It’s better to just ignore these things.”

…

Lu Ran frowned, thinking this was bad.

He hadn’t anticipated that Gao Yang, in his impulsiveness, would enter before him.

And once Gao Yang entered, the three-minute preparation countdown began.

Those outside couldn’t see inside the Deathmatch, but they could see the countdown.

The three minutes passed second by second, fleeting.

The battle began!

But unfortunately, the fight inside couldn’t be seen; everyone stared intently at the panel.

A mere three minutes and fifty seconds later,

Suddenly, Gao Yang’s name turned gray!

Lei Tai’s face instantly turned pale; this meant Gao Yang was dead!

Simultaneously, Gao Yang’s ranking on the level leaderboard vanished.

At that moment, an oppressive silence fell over all the dungeon halls across Longxia, the stifling atmosphere making it hard for everyone to breathe.

After the previous deaths of over thirty Longxia combatants, now another one had died!

“Sigh, so impulsive, too impulsive!”

“This makes me furious! If I weren’t only level 36, I’d go in too!”

“Fighting for the nation, Gao Yang died a worthy death!”

“Where is Lei Tai? As the guild leader, is he just going to watch his member die?”

“And what about that Necromancer? Showed off for a few days, now he’s disappeared?”

“Too scared to even attempt the Endless Tower this morning! How laughable!”

…

For a moment, all sorts of comments flew.

Lu Ran stared fixedly at the Deathmatch room panel.

The moment Gao Yang’s grayed-out information disappeared, Lu Ran stepped into the teleportation array, selected the Deathmatch room, and entered!

[Hide personal information?]

Seeing the prompt, Lu Ran initially intended to hide everything, but then noticed he could selectively hide information.

After a moment’s thought, Lu Ran checked the boxes for other details but deliberately left his Class unhidden!

Then, he immediately entered!

He needed to ensure no one else could enter before him.

Instantly,

Lu Ran’s information replaced Gao Yang’s.

But similarly, with his personal info hidden, nothing much was visible.

Name: ? Level: ? Class: Necromancer; Guild: ? Nation: Longxia.

By Lu Ran’s design, other details were hidden, but his Class was specifically displayed!

He wanted all nations across the globe to watch as a conventional-class Necromancer from Longxia brutally crushed the Eagle Union!

Instantly, dungeon halls across the world erupted!

“It’s that Necromancer from Longxia!”

“My God, he actually stepped up!”

“But his level isn’t even 53. Challenging the Eagle Union’s deathmatch… can he do it?”

“In the Endless Tower, he was only killing bosses, non-human entities. Against a combatant, especially a magic class, this Necromancer is in great danger!”

…

Meanwhile, in Sakura at that moment,

Nana Mi, who had been leisurely drinking sake, also received the news.

The Necromancer from Longxia had accepted the challenge!

Whoosh!

She immediately stood up and ran towards the dungeon hall. Ultimately, she was still curious about this Necromancer’s performance.
