Wind didn't insist too much on my choice. Even if I followed his plan, with my shallow gaming experience, I wouldn't necessarily be that strong. After all, for a mage, combat required skill and experience the most. This required time to accumulate. It wasn't something that could be achieved overnight by luck. Furthermore, a mage's individual combat ability was poor. They usually needed the cooperation of others to unleash the greatest destructive power. For a necromancer like me who might be wanted and hunted down, this kind of request was obviously unrealistic.
Wind was currently staying in Azure Dragon City and had successfully changed his class to a Trainee Knight. It was said that he had almost died fighting two wild wolves alone during the class change mission. It could be said that he had narrowly escaped death. The badge depicted a knight who was charging on horseback with a spear and a shield. The badge's attribute was " Attack accuracy increased by 5%", which was quite good for knights with low attack accuracy. In << The World >>, the attributes of the profession badges were generally better. This was to encourage players to wear them, so that others could identify their profession level from the badge to reduce unnecessary disputes. Ordinary equipment with attributes was very rare. If the badge could be sold or exchanged, it could definitely be sold for a good price.
I'm still in the soul stage, so I can't go see him. I've agreed to go to Azure Dragon City to find him after I resurrect. It's already been more than an hour, so I have to make use of this time to rest. I'll be entering the game again soon.
I stared at the Skeletal Warriors that were slowly swaying in front of me. My palms were covered in sweat. I was hesitating whether I should take the risk and attack.
Although having more people was more powerful, the quality of the people was also very important. A group of weak motley crew would not be of much use in a battle. They could only be sacrificed in vain. I didn't want to waste any more effort to capture skeleton soldiers. Although there wasn't any danger, it wasn't very useful either. It wouldn't be of much use in a fight. Of course, I didn't want to bite off more than I could chew and dream of reaching the heavens in a single step. My gaze fell on the stronger skeleton soldiers.
Even though my combat techniques had improved, it would still be quite difficult for me to deal with a Skeleton Warrior alone, even with Tao Tao. In a serious battle, it would either be me or it would die, with a 50% chance of each. I definitely couldn't foolishly fight it head-on. If I wanted to achieve my goal, I could only fight with my wits and not my strength.
This was all thanks to the newly acquired " Attack Speed Increase " skill. Without it, I really wouldn't dare to provoke the Skeleton Warrior. I still remembered its strength clearly! If it wasn't for his good luck, he would have been killed.
The greater the harvest, the higher the risk. I still understand this principle. Wealth comes from danger! For the sake of a better tomorrow, I decided to take this gamble.
My plan was actually very simple. First, Tao Tao would launch an attack from the Skeleton Warrior's back. Of course, it would be a feint attack. I wasn't willing to let the cute Tao Tao send himself to his death. I mainly wanted to create a commotion to attract the Skeleton Warrior's attention. I would find an opportunity to rush forward and use the " Soul Contract " to tap its forehead with one finger. With the 50% increase in Attack Speed, the chances of success would increase by a lot. Success was naturally good, but once he failed, he would not linger in battle. Even if he had to take a few bone blades, he would quickly leave the battle. The further he fled, the better. He would wait for his vitality to recover before looking for his next target.
I had already discussed it several times and firmly believed that this was the best plan of action. The first one to start was the most dangerous. I was alone and helpless. As long as I could succeed in two of them, as the team slowly expanded, it would be much easier to operate. Everyone would swarm together, and my life would be guaranteed.
Tao Tao and I sneakily followed up. Tao Tao rushed up and kicked the Skeleton Warrior before turning around and running. The Skeleton Warrior was furious and chased after it while waving its bone blade. I suddenly jumped up from the ground and quickly rushed in front of it. With a flash of black light,"Soul Contract"…The bone blade whistled and landed on my body. My mental strength decreased sharply. F * ck, I failed again. I quickly fled into the distance, completely ignoring the anger of the Skeleton Warrior who was ambushed. If I hadn't run a little faster than it, I would have been torn into pieces by them. I could understand their feelings. If I were facing an enemy who wanted to rape my will, my attitude wouldn't be any better.
This was already the sixth time. Fortunately, I had enough mental power. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to withstand such consumption. After resting for a while, I mustered up my confidence and brought Tao Tao to look for the next target.
I finally succeeded. I watched as the bone blades that were about to hit my body retracted, and the ferocious Skeleton Warriors obediently stood to the side. I finally let out a sigh of relief. After eight consecutive failures, I was about to lose confidence in my plan. For Undead creatures with abilities slightly above mine and full of stamina, the success rate of a "soul contract" was already very low. However, it was so ridiculously low that it still exceeded my imagination. Even with the 5% success rate, it was only slightly over 10%. It really tested the will of the caster!
This success greatly boosted my morale, proving that my plan was still feasible. The success last time wasn't an absolutely accidental flash in the pan. A 10% success rate was something I could afford.
With the first one, there would naturally be a second and a third. Although I would often be chased around by angry Skeleton Warriors, I still persevered. After failure, success would come. I no longer cared about small setbacks.
As my followers increased in number, my work gradually became easier. A few of my followers surrounded me and resisted the attacks of a Skeleton Warrior. I kept casting the " Soul Contract " on the side until I succeeded. I no longer had to run for my life. Occasionally, I would take a few hits, but it wouldn't affect the overall situation. It wouldn't affect me much.
I didn't think about anything else. My mind was filled with the thought of having more Skeleton Warriors to strengthen my undead army and quickly form a fighting force. It was only when I felt a sense of weakness that I suddenly realized that my mental strength had already fallen below 10%. This was quite a big deal. If I accidentally took two of those attacks, wouldn't I be in danger of dying? I hurriedly stopped my crazy expansion and found a place for my underlings to guard the outer layer. I stayed inside to rest.
The frequent use of the "Soul Contract" had caused my mental strength to increase slightly, and the orange color of my mental strength bar had also become slightly darker. The soul contract was similar to the meditation of sorcerers and the breathing adjustment of warriors. They both had the effect of increasing the upper limit of one's spiritual power. However, the effect was indeed the best. The stronger the target of the soul contract was, the more spiritual power one could increase. It was not only training oneself, but also increasing the number of subordinates. It was killing two birds with one stone. It made sense. If Necromancers didn't have something unique about them, they would have been destroyed long ago. How could they survive in the world?
After a quick calculation, he had taken in a total of 17 Skeleton Warriors. Most of them had been taken in during the latter half of the year. It was difficult to do business without capital, but it was different when one had capital. Money begets money, interest accumulates, and it was much faster.
Satisfied, I patrolled the area. All of them were tall and mighty, much stronger than the listless skeleton soldiers. Of course, there was still a huge gap in their numbers. It was still far from my requirements. No matter what, I had to have at least a hundred or eighty of them before I could bring them out to meet people. If they were to be dealt with easily as soon as they appeared, where would I put my face?
Looking at the time, the six-hour deadline was almost up. The revolution was far from successful, and they still had to work hard next time. Little brothers, we'll see you next time.
