Chapter 980: Necromancer Battle (1/2)

Everyone in the team were surprised when they heard Tamas' question.

They involuntarily turned around to take a look. From what they could see there are over a hundred undead creatures roaming around in the room and this question didn't seem so hard.

”There are a hundred and eight undead. What is so tough about it to be considered a test?” Saber Monarch blurted out.

But Gran was the one that replied to his question.

”No, there are around one hundred and forty undead creatures. There are shadow undeads hidden. I could sense them a bit.”

Five elemental King also looked at the whole room and then at Tamas who is smiling and Sam who is looking around casually.

He didn't want to speak, because he knew that neither Tamas or Sam are stupid enough to ask such a simple question and take such a simple question seriously if the answer is that simple. As usual, he is most patient guy in the room.

Sam used energy vision and took a look. He must say that the metamorphosised eyes are as good as that telescope he got from the Charbhum realm, maybe he could even see better than that.

And for his own vision he could use the enhancemenet along with the energy vision which is not possible with the telescope.

After he looked at the surroundings, he replied.

”There are three hundred and twenty four undead creatures in the room. And if we count you, it would three hundred and twenty-five.”

When Sam said that, Gran and Saber Monarch were shocked. The number Sam gave and the numbers they gave are not even remotely close.

And the last sentence about Tamas being an undead creature, that was another shock, they became vigilant and got ready in case Tamas made a move.

But the expected display of rage didn't come from Tamas. Instead he smiled and said.

”Well, done. You are great. I didn't expect that you would notice me. I was really sure you are going to miss that.”

”It is actually impossible considering I am also kind of similar to you. But I couldn't pin point exactly what your part is. Ghoul?”

”Yes, what are you? I couldn't even sense your part at all.”

”Vampire.”

As their conversation went on the rest of the team became confused. They are openly calling themselves as undead creatures, ghoul and vampire. They couldn't understand this at all.

”Wait, you mean that he is right about the three hundred and twenty four undead creatures?” Saber Monrach focused on the number more than their undead creature exchange.

”Yes, he is right.”

Tamas replied and clapped his hand twice.

The whole room suddenly dimmed a bit, but a lot of creatures came out. Some shadow undead rose from the shadows and the souls or specters made themselves visible in the air.

Saber Monrach once again counter the undead creatures and was stunned.

He didn't expect that he wasn't able to identify a soul roaming that close to him. Suddenly he felt unsafe.

As if sensing his emotions, Tamas replied.

”Don't panic. If they were attacking you, then you would have definitely sensed their presence. It was just that their nature is to be hidden and your instincts didn't warn you because they don't have any intention of hurting you.”

Even though, he reassured them, it is hard for them to just let it go.

”I guess, I passed the test. So, what about the competition?”

”A battle of necromancy. We are not going to use our already piled up undead creatures.

We are going to use fresh corpses, in the field. We wouldn't use any other elemental attacks, phyiscal attacks and such. You can only use spontaneously created undead creatures to attack each other. We can move all we want, but even then we are not allowed to use other elemental energies.

I will suppress my cultivation to your level. Are you okay with that?”

”That sounds fair. But the real question is where do we get the fresh corpses? It is not like they are lying around.”

”There is a reason why I chose this realm. They are just too many creatures killing each other. Stay in the Front beak city's Mavin Inn. The Inn owner will inform the location and time of the battle. And take this token. You will get some special treatment.”
