Skills with no cooldown? I become the Undead Scourge! - Chapter 58
At this very moment, within the main city dungeon halls across the globe, countless combatants were rushing in, desperately eager to witness the spectacle.
Those who had just finished running dungeons and stepped out were taken aback by the massive, bustling crowd before them. Some found it impossible to even leave, and with many more choosing to stay and watch the excitement, the crowd kept growing larger and larger.
Yu Qingcang and the others, who had been there from the start, looked up at the interface panel. The room showed two people inside.
The room owner was that combatant from the Eagle Union. His personal information and details remained hidden; only his nationality was visible.
As for Lu Ran, although he had also hidden his own information and details, he had deliberately chosen to display his Class.
The scene was utterly bizarre.
Countless combatants worldwide were focused on this duel between two individuals whose names, levels, guilds, appearances—almost everything—were unknown. They were watching a match between two complete mysteries!
The only thing known was that one of them was the Longxia Necromancer who had been causing such a stir recently.
“This kid, if he’s hiding his info, why did he specifically display his class?” Ye Hongyi said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
“Maybe it’s for the best. Since the Necromancer class has been such a hot topic lately, showing it isn’t a big deal,” Lei Tai said bluntly.
He couldn’t be bothered with anything else right now; his only thought was for Lu Ran to quickly pummel the opponent and reclaim their honor!
Inside the room, the three-minute countdown had already begun.
Nana Mi rushed to the dungeon hall at top speed, but it was already packed, almost impossible to squeeze into. However, the appearance of the Chinatedai Society quickly cleared a path.
Nana Mi arrived before the Deathmatch panel, glanced briefly at the Endless Tower leaderboard not far away, and noted that the Necromancer’s rank was still third, unmoved.
But this Necromancer, instead of attempting the 59th floor of the Endless Tower in the morning, had come to the Deathmatch in the afternoon!
Nana Mi looked at the two names in the Deathmatch room.
Frowning, she asked, “Are we sure it’s that Necromancer?”
Her attendant pondered and said, “It should be, right? After all, many of Longxia’s high-level combatants have already died in that Eagle Union Deathmatch room. It’s unlikely any foolish Necromancer would seek that kind of spotlight.”
This was a matter of life and death!
And with his name, level, and other info hidden, dying without even gaining any recognition would be truly laughable.
Nana Mi frowned and said, “What a pity. Since the Eagle Union dares to do this, they must have a high-level combatant equipped with a full set of Black Dragon gear, insulting Longxia. The raw power is evident; it’s not something a Necromancer can overcome.”
A mere Necromancer, even if he cleared the 58th floor, so what?
He hasn’t even surpassed Yu Qingcang.
Although the public opinion stir is significant, and reaching the 58th floor of the Endless Tower as a Necromancer is commendable, to become this arrogant?
Daring to enter the Deathmatch to respond to the Eagle Union’s provocation at less than level 53…
“In the end, he’s a fool. While somewhat capable, that’s all there is to it. It’s still a bit regrettable if he dies just like that. I thought I might have encountered a worthy rival, but it seems I overestimated him,” Nana Mi said indifferently.
Deep down, she didn’t think much of this Necromancer at all!
She was even lamenting that if this Necromancer died, she would lose a potential rival worth paying attention to.
Inside the Dungeon.
This was Lu Ran’s first time entering a Deathmatch.
It was a massive, circular, colosseum-like area, but without any spectators surrounding it.
The stone floor was smooth. Lu Ran stood within his own safe zone. Looking across, he could see a dark-skinned bro sitting and resting in the safe zone on the other side.
Noticing someone had entered, the man grinned, stood up, and said, “You Longxia combatants really do have brain issues, huh? They’re still letting people in?”
Then, his eyes met Lu Ran’s.
Both were now unable to use their communicators, but they could see each other’s information.
“Level 60 Necromancer Summoner, Land…” Lu Ran murmured.
He remembered now.
This guy was on the global level leaderboard, affiliated with the Eagle Union.
His class was Necromancer Summoner. Summoner itself was a hidden class, and Necromancer Summoner was a branch of Summoner. Very few had encountered this class.
What Lu Ran hadn’t expected was that for such a stunt, the Eagle Union had picked… a bro? Even after global datafication, they’re still playing politics?
“Level 25 Necromancer? Huh?” Land looked at Lu Ran in astonishment.
He hadn’t expected a level 25 rookie to barge in.
And a conventional-class Necromancer at that!
“Kid, you must have come to the wrong place. This is the Deathmatch, not the regular Colosseum!” Land said with a sinister laugh.
“No mistake. I’m looking for you. Weren’t you waiting for Longxia combatants to accept the challenge? Well, I’m here,” Lu Ran said calmly.
“Haha… Good one, kid. You didn’t see all the hype around that mysterious Necromancer from your country and think you could do the same, did you?” Land asked arrogantly.
Lu Ran narrowed his eyes slightly.
“How did you kill all those previous combatants?” he asked.
Many of those who had accepted the challenge before were hidden classes, and not lacking in high-level combatants. A Thunder Berserker had even come in but died in less than five minutes!
Hearing this,
Land lazily replied, “Well, you’re not leaving here alive anyway. No harm in letting you see.”
As he spoke,
Land chuckled, a staff suddenly appearing in his hand.
Then,
Thump! Thump! Thump!
A series of dull thuds, similar to the sound of Lu Ran summoning Skeleton Soldiers, echoed.
Around Land, various summoned creatures of different shapes appeared.
Among them were Jungle Furies, Trolls, Werewolves, etc…
About seven or eight in total!
Lu Ran understood immediately. This Necromancer Summoner was fundamentally different from a traditional Summoner.
Traditional Summoners rely on their summons, using skills in coordination with them to achieve remarkable combat effectiveness.
But this Necromancer Summoner was more similar to Lu Ran’s own Necromancer class, summoning things like Skeleton Soldiers or Ancient Trolls to fight.
Lu Ran scanned the summons and suddenly noticed a golden prompt above each one: [Can Be Controlled].
And it was a selectable state!
Huh?
Lu Ran was startled for a moment but quickly realized this was the effect of his new trait, the Throne of Bones!
Ignore conditions, ignore level, control all dark-aligned non-human units!
And the summons called forth by Land, the Necromancer Summoner—what a coincidence—were all dark-aligned!
Lu Ran almost laughed out loud.
Just then, the three-minute preparation time ended.
But Land wasn’t in a hurry to attack, seemingly intending to toy with Lu Ran before killing him. After all, sitting here in an empty room had been pretty boring.
Lu Ran, meanwhile, wasn’t rushing to control the summons. Instead, he continued asking, “Just with these? You have quite a few summons, but they aren’t that impressive, are they?”
Land let out a loud laugh.
“You’re right, they aren’t much by themselves,” he said. “But what if they’re paired with my full set of Black Dragon equipment?”
