Chapter 18: Chosen Undead

Aldrich closed his eyes and sighed as he looked up to the pale y flowed around hi hi

He heard the sounds of ravenous chewing, flesh tearing, and bones crunching as Adam and Elaine finally had their fill of Ghost Their fill of vengeance He let theness as a well deserved reward for their suffering, and also because Ghost had dropped a Soul

Aldrich would use the Soul and craft so out of it If it retained Ghost's powers, then an ite to be far, far more useful than a du intensive Phase power

In the meanwhile, Aldrich stabilized his newfound power by distributing his stat points He started to invest more heavily into Attunement now as he had obtained the [Tome of Dark Arts Rank 2]

The [Tome of the Dark Arts] were basic items that Necroranted theue of spells to learn from, of which they could learn three

Past level 50, one had to craft or find better spell toher levels

Many of those higher-level toh, Aldrich could find in the Trial Quests, so he did not worry about learning spells He just ht not have access to the absolute rarest spell to about in Elden World itself

Aldrich dumped in 8 points in Attunement and 2 points in Vitality

Optiic, but this was not the game where he knehat threats he would face and how much health he needed to tank pre-coded attacks

In the real world, he needed higher health and durability as a safety net tosurprise attack

[+ 2 to Vitality, doubled to +4 due to affinity bonuses]

[Vitality: 10 ] 14]

[HP: 33/33 ] 45/45]

[+8 to Attunement, doubled to +16 due to affinity bonuses]

[Attuneht Aldrich With this, he could increase how iven ion Necromancer like him who relied on minions, this was the absolute most important stat

For every 5 attunement points, he could attune one extra spell OR minion With a total of 21 attunement, he could add in up to four extra spells or minions or a mixture of both

The base number of spells he could attune was 5, and the base number of minions he could attune was also at 5

Every 10 levels, Aldrich would obtain a passive skill called the [Legion's Calling] that increased his base unit controlling capacity by 5, thusout at a total of 55 total units controlled at level 100

However, since he was not a et bonuses to increasing spell capacity with levels, so he needed to use Attunement for that Yet another reason why Attunement was such an important stat

Aldrich used 3 of his Attune spell capacity He currently knew 3 spells, having 2 empty slots, so with 1 bonus, he could learn 6 spells total which was all he needed for now

[Unit control limit increased from 5 to 8]

[Equipped spell limit increased from 5 to 6]

With that said and done, Aldrich walked over to Ghost's corpse Or rather, as left of it Just a few bloody smears, bone shards, and tidbits of pink viscera scattered across the dirt As he approached, his Undead parted way for him

"You talked so much sht, but in the end, this is all you amount to, huh," said Aldrich as he looked down at the remnants of the man who once had tormented hirab Ghost's Soul

[1x Soul of Ghost obtained]

"Good work, everyone," said Aldrich as he gave a thu the Strikers as they curled around his "Now then, it's about time we added more friends to this party"

Aldrich's Undead heart no longer beat, but if it did, it would have beat at top speed in anticipation He withdrew the [Nether Binding Amulet] from his inventory

He held out his pale paly coalesced around it, swirling and for behind an amethyst diade Aion Necromancers at level 5 and allowed them to tap into the Nether, the underworld of Elden World where deher level Undead with actual names resided
