Skills with no cooldown? I become the Undead Scourge! - Chapter 63

This process was excruciatingly painful.

Lu Ran’s spell attack power was naturally inferior to that of a high-level magic profession, so the damage from his Corpse Explosion wasn’t particularly high.

Baron’s health bar wasn’t dropping very quickly either.

But the pain was real!
Moreover, as an assassin, being forced to stand there waiting for death, instead of dying in combat, was infuriating!

Watching his health gradually decrease, Baron’s eyes were bloodshot, and his mental state was on the verge of collapse!
Lu Ran, meanwhile, was in no hurry, casually summoning Skeleton Soldiers as if it were a game.

A group of Ancient Golems stood around him, looking bored.

He occasionally tossed a Death’s Touch to ensure Baron remained rooted to the spot, unable to move.

His casual and relaxed demeanor made Baron increasingly frantic, but there was absolutely nothing he could do about it.

Baron let out a furious roar.

His body swelled another size larger, his eyes turning completely blood-red.

“Bloodthirsty Frenzy? What good is that! A Werewolf’s Bloodthirsty Frenzy requires hitting a target to restore health,” Lu Ran glanced over and said lazily.

And the Skeleton Soldiers rushing to explode in his face simply gave him no chance to attack!

At this very moment.

Copy Halls around the world were also watching this scene unfold.

The four Guild Leaders weren’t worried, of course.

“That kid Lu Ran is probably just playing around again.”

“Although the Bloodthirsty Werewolf is fast, it doesn’t stand a chance of moving freely in front of Lu Ran.”

“Wouldn’t a quick resolution be better? That kid!”

…

Only Liu Xinxin smiled and said, “Lu Ran has his own plans. He probably hasn’t used his Blood Spear yet. Ending it too quickly would be too conspicuous. If Eagle becomes too afraid to send anyone else, then Lu Ran won’t achieve the effect he wants.”

At the same time.

In Sakura.

Nanami was also watching this duel.

Seeing that six minutes had passed.

But neither side had died yet, Nanami frowned.

“This round, that Necromancer shouldn’t survive, right? Bloodthirsty Werewolves naturally counter magic professions. Magic professions lack sufficient control, and Bloodthirsty Werewolves can restore health by attacking. The things the Necromancer summons would just become healing items for the Bloodthirsty Werewin. That Necromancer has no chance of winning,” the maid beside her analyzed.

But Nanami didn’t think so.

She pondered and said, “If this were a normal duel between a Bloodthirsty Werewolf and a Necromancer, that Necromancer should have died long ago!”

But not only was he not dead.

He had lasted six minutes, and no one knew what was really happening inside the Deathmatch Arena.

And just then.

Inside the Deathmatch Arena, Lu Ran felt that the time was about right.

At this moment, Baron still had nearly two-thirds of his health left.

The damage from the Skeleton Soldiers’ Corpse Explosion was still too low; the Bloodthirsty Werewolf’s enhanced physique also reduced damage taken.

Having them queue up one by one also wasn’t a fast enough attack frequency.

But now, the time was roughly sufficient.

Lu Ran stretched lazily.

He glanced at Baron and said, “That’s about enough. Time for the next one.”

As soon as he finished speaking, all the queued Skeleton Soldiers suddenly became frenzied and chaotic, swarming forward in a rush.

Barron’s figure was submerged in the blink of an eye.

Amidst a series of crackling explosions reminiscent of firecrackers, Baron’s health bar rapidly emptied!
Simultaneously, on the Deathmatch room panel, Baron’s name turned gray!
At this moment, a storm of shock swept across the globe once again!
A level 58 Bloodthirsty Werewolf, versus a Necromancer under level 53, 1v1, had failed!
The Necromancer was victorious!

This completely overturned the conventional outcome of a magic profession versus an assassin profession in a confined, one-on-one duel!

The four Guild Leaders watching nodded in satisfaction.

Yu Cangqiong said excitedly, “That kid did well! I’d really love to see the expressions on the faces of those Eagle Congress members right now. I wonder what their next move will be?”

Liu Xinxin said, “Any move they make will only bring them more humiliation. If they do nothing, they’ll be directly suppressed by Dragon Xia. If they keep sending people in, they’ll only sink deeper.”

Meanwhile, in Sakura.

Nanami, seeing this scene, felt her heart jolt violently.

There was a time when she had completely looked down on this Necromancer.

But his repeated performances were simply shattering her worldview!
How was he doing this?
No matter how hard she thought, she couldn’t figure it out.

Because conventionally, the only way to drastically change a profession’s characteristics and greatly enhance its capabilities was through being equipped with absolutely top-tier gear!
But on the global equipment leaderboard, the only item belonging to that Necromancer was Hades’ Crystal Skull.

Moreover, Hades’ Crystal Skull couldn’t alter the Necromancer’s combat style. While it did provide some boost to spell attack power, that boost was far from enough to cause a qualitative change for a Necromancer!

It didn’t make sense, it just didn’t make sense!
Just then.

Lu Ran changed the room name again:
[Is that all? Is Eagle out of people?]

A simple sentence, extremely provocative!
A public Deathmatch room, anyone can enter. He killed one of yours, and is now taunting that Eagle has no one left? Is this the level of those who enter?
Anyone would be furious!

In the Eagle conference room.

The various Guild Leaders and several officials instantly turned red with anger!

“F*ck! Kill him, send someone to kill him immediately!” an official roared.

But the officials themselves didn’t dare to enter.

The Bloodthirsty Werewolf went in and died, the Necromancer died too, how were they supposed to fight now?
Even Neil fell silent.

If Lander died because he was careless and got controlled, what about Baron?
The Bloodthirsty Werewolf completely counters magic professions, it made no sense!

“Damn it, we have no idea what’s happening inside the Deathmatch Arena. How should we handle this?” another, more rational official asked with a frown.

Letting it go was certainly not an option.

Being counter-attacked by the provocateur, then being too afraid to make a sound or accept the challenge—that was the most humiliating outcome!
Just then, someone suddenly reported that a challenger had accepted!

The room panel showed a conventional profession, a Rogue, a level 56 Rogue!
A figure on the global level rankings, albeit lower down, but for a conventional profession to make it onto the global level leaderboard meant he was someone noteworthy.

His identity belonged to Eagle’s third-largest guild: Sacred Nut.

But the Guild Leaders present in the conference room weren’t aware of this move.

“Alex is indeed one of my members. He might have acted on his own initiative. However, this reminds me—a Rogue’s counter against magic professions is no worse than a hidden profession like the Bloodthirsty Werewolf,” the Guild Leader of Sacred Nut said.

The others’ eyes lit up.

Even Neil nodded and said, “I almost forgot about conventional professions. A Rogue’s stealth is very troublesome. Necromancers happen to be a profession without detection skills. It’s a natural counter!”

Paired with a high-damage assassin’s burst combo, a Necromancer simply couldn’t withstand it!

“We should have thought of this earlier. It’s ridiculous that a mere Necromancer made us overthink this. For conventional matchups, we should use conventional professions to kill!” said the official who had previously clamored for the Necromancer’s immediate death, now sounding satisfied.

Similarly, global professionals watching this scene also instantly realized this.

“Who would have thought Eagle would send a Rogue?”

“This Necromancer is being foolish. Exposing his profession is like playing with his cards face-up. The opponent just needs to pick a counter profession, and they will eventually kill him.”

“He might not need multiple attempts; this one might be enough. I’m a Rogue myself, let me ask you, how is a Necromancer supposed to detect and counter my stealth?”

“Killing two is already pretty good. He should have just quit then. But he had to keep provoking. Now he’s about to capsize in a ditch.”

“Dragon Xia was just too angered, after all, they lost over thirty professionals.”
