Chapter 102 - Terriorism in Youngdungpo Station (4) (1/2)
-Your skill grade has been upgraded. (Basic → Skilled)
[Skill information]
-Name: Response of Death
-Grade: Skilled
-Category: Active
-Cost: 100 mana
*You can summon and control 15 ownerless zombies in the Abyss. There is no limit to the number of them that you can possess, and they disappear to dust after 20 minutes. (Reuse standby time: 30 minutes)
Sungwoo increased zombies to fifteen, and their standby time increased to 20 minutes from ten. It was an addition of considerable power, but the best reward for hunting the Raid Boss was a different item.
-The killed becomes your subordinate spirit.
He could resurrect this giant monster as a skeleton under his control.
Whew!
The giant monster, eight meters tall, slowly raised himself. The wind passed through his thick white bones, making an eerie sound. Sungwoo also obtained the bracelet on the giant’s right arm.
[Item information]
-Name: Blessing of the Thunder God
-Class: Hero
-Category: Bracelet
-Effect: Consumes all mana to create powerful ‘electricity’. No mana is generated for 5 minutes after an attack.
* If someone without mana wears it, it has a waiting time of 24 hours after use one time without any power consumption.
Since Sungwoo experienced its firepower before, Sungwoo knew that it contained a skill with the potential of inflicting tremendous damage, but there was one fatal weakness in it.
It was none other than mana. Using all the mana available?
‘I now see why these things have the hero grade.’
Mana was essential for the operation of the skeletons. In other words, it is an unsuitable item Sungwoo.
However, it was fortunate that there was a condition of use for “objects without mana” below it.
‘Okay, I can put it on the Ogre Fighter skeleton.’
Since the Ogre Fighter skeleton is an ‘object without mana’, Sungwoo obtained a skeleton that can use a skill.
In the meantime, the Werewolf in a brown coat stood aghast, with his long snout wide open, at the appearance of the Ogre Fighter resurrected as a skeleton.
“No way! Crazy! What the hell are you doing, Necromancer?”
“You said you brought a friend. Why? Can’t he be my friend?”
“Don’t play on words!”
“Sure, no punning, of course.”
Pik! Pik!
“Argh!”
Sungwoo fired at his thigh. The Werewolf fell, screaming in pain, and Sungwoo slowly walked toward him and shouted, “Hey, I think we need to introduce each other.”
The monster was shuddering all over at that moment. It was a seizure. Sungwoo pushed his body over with his foot.
“Krrrrrrr…Don’t make fun of me! Cough!”
The monster’s eyes rolled back as hefoamied at the mouth. Then, he twisted his whole body and stiffened. It was poison.
“Damn it! He poisoned himself for fear of interrogation.”
Minhum stomped his feet as if he was angry at that, for he would have interrogated the monster to find out the mastermind behind the attack. Although his main base Youngdungpo Station was attacked, he could not mount a counterattack because he could not find the mastermind.
However, Sungwoo knew there was another way to find it out.
-The dead will be your subordinate spirit.
The Werewolf skeleton in a brown coat was resurrected and approached Sungwoo.
Then, a familiar message appeared before his eyes.
-You can check the ‘fragments of the memory’ of the dead.
It had been a while since he read somebody’s memory. He wasn’t sure how this mechanism worked, but it’s obvious that the designers of this game deliberately presented fragmented puzzles to Sungwoo.
Just like a new quest was given when he read the memory of the “Vampire Branch Chief” in the past, the memory fragments gave some sort of hint as if to guide Sungwoo in some direction.
Soon, the Werewolf’s memory was reproduced vividly like a video.
‘Where is it? This is a subway transfer gate I’ve seen a few times.’
It was dark, so it was difficult for him to identify the location, but it was a familiar place.
‘Sindorim Station.’
