Chapter 3 Upgrades

The gray bone knife slashed at the neck of a carrion. The rotting head flew high and spun to the ground two meters away.

"The thirty-fourth carrion." Volod was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to report the number of carrion killed along the way.

"Upgraded." Lan Wu said affirmatively, and at the same time walked over to the carrion corpse to absorb experience points.

Black demonic energy escaped from the carrion corpse and split into two streams, drifting towards Lan Wu and Volod respectively. The two of them quietly absorbed the floating demonic energy, and neither of them made a sound. After absorbing the last bit of demonic energy, Worod couldn't wait to take out another identification scroll from the space bag.

"Take a look at your attributes. We are now teammates, and we should allocate skill points more reasonably. ”

Lan Wu was as good as he could, and turned around and asked Worod to hold the identification scroll to his back. After a while, he turned around and took the scroll from Worod's hand.

The basic stats have been slightly improved. The character level has been changed to 2. But the column for the description of the most critical skills was empty, and there was not a single handwriting.

Lan Wu frowned. The level has indeed been raised. All attributes have not changed, except for the four major resistances, they have also changed. However, the skill points and skill trees that should appear after leveling up did not appear. He was silent with the scroll.

Worod, who took the initiative to retreat in order to avoid suspicion, saw that Lan Wu didn't speak out for a long time, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”

Lan Wu was silent, and tucked the identification scroll into his trouser pocket.

Volod was anxious and asked loudly: "Tell me, what happened?" What skills did you learn? We are teammates and should have a deeper understanding of each other. ”

"Do I need to disclose my information?" Lan Wu asked rhetorically.

Volod was stunned, and suddenly lowered his head in frustration: "I'm sorry, impulsiveness made me lose my mind." All professionals should abide by the principle of never inquiring into each other's information. As an apology, please accept this by all means. ”

As he spoke, Worod took out a short stick from the space bag. The short stick was inlaid with a piece of metal at each end, and tiny runes were engraved on it. He handed the short stick to Lan Wu, and forced his composure to squeeze out a smile: "This is the staff I got when I received the gift of the gods. You don't have a weapon. This staff is for you. If you're going back to Camp Rogue, head straight west to see it. May God be with you. ”

Stuffing the staff into Lan Wu's hand, Worod glanced at Lan Wu silently, and then walked forward. The back looks a little lonely. The two skeletons he summoned were carrying bone knives, creaking and creaking in their bodies.

"Sorry, I can't reveal my situation just yet." Lan Wu watched Volod fade away, and finally his back disappeared on the horizon.

Worod's departure made Lan Wu's heart a little heavy. Although he didn't admit that Volod didn't fit his ideal teammate, he was a friend worth making friends with.

Holding this familiar staff, even if Lan Wu didn't recognize the scroll to check the staff attributes, he knew that this was the new magic staff that was given by the system when the necromancer in the game was born.

+1 Skeleton Resurrection (Necromancer only), +50% damage to the undead

This new magic stick is just a tabula rasa, not the best. But for Lan Wu at the moment, it is a real superb. +1 Skeleton Resurrection, this skill does not need to be learned, it is a skill attached to the staff. Just in time for him to not have a skill tree at the moment.

"We need to find out why we don't have a skill tree as soon as possible." Lan Wu was silent, his gaze drifting to the west. Camp Rog, and perhaps only in Camp Rog can you figure out why the skill tree doesn't appear.

Deciding on his next destination, Lan Wu turned around and walked towards the west. As soon as he walked more than ten meters, he stopped again, looked down at the staff in his hand and groaned.

It's not hard to get to Camp Rogg. With a staff with weapon perks, it's far easier to deal with carrion than it was at first. It's not that simple to just want to sneak into the camp.

Akara, set in the game is a nun who believes in the Great Eye and is also a prophet. Although the incomparably wise and powerful woman in the backstory has gouged out her eyes since she was a child, no one can escape her psychic eye.

Rushing into Rog's camp and facing Akala's magical psychic eye, can he still keep his identity as a traverser?

"Gotta get an identity." Lan Wu muttered to himself, and turned back to the south. There's no better way to infiltrate Rog's camp than to find a few survivors from Thor Village and use them to prove yourself as a necromancer.

Along the way, I have to say that this bloody wasteland was once the main battlefield of humans and demonic creatures, and it is indeed in vain. He hadn't gone far before Lan Wu saw a carrion struggling to crawl out of the dirt.

"What Volod can do, of course I can." Lan Wu once again strengthened his will in his heart, and quickly stepped forward and raised his staff to hit the head of the rotting corpse.

With five strikes in a row, the carrion let out a mournful roar and lost all vitality. With a weapon, the damage to the rotting corpse is indeed noticeably different. Lan Wu raised his staff and pointed at the carrion. The rotting corpse is visible to the naked eye and begins to swell. With a snap, a fresh skeleton rose from the ground.

Lan Wu looked at the skeleton that had just been summoned, a little speechless. This skeleton was significantly smaller than the two skeletons summoned by Worod by more than two turns.

The skeleton was only about one and a half meters tall and had slender bones. Zero's ribs were mutilated, as if he had been hit hard in the chest and had broken his ribs. What's even worse is the bone knife it carries...... No, it should be said that only half of the bone dagger remains. Lan Wu was skeptical that the bone knife, whose blade was only the length of an index finger, could do enough damage to the carrion before the little skeleton was shattered.

The newborn skeleton is just like in the game, although it is a defective product, but it is also quite active. It carried a bone knife and roamed around Lan Wu's body. I ran to the front and slipped to the back, which was very lively.

Lan Wu stared at the little skeleton, calmly absorbing experience points. In any case, with this little skeleton, he finally didn't need to engage in melee combat with such a rotting corpse that people couldn't look at.

After absorbing the demonic energy, Lan Wu took the little skeleton and embarked on a mission journey. There are many carrion corpses in the wasteland. Soon, two slow-moving rotting corpses walked into Lan Wu's field of vision again.

The carrion had apparently discovered Lan Wu's existence. They spread their hands full of rotting flesh and spewed rancid breath as they moved towards this side. Everywhere they went, two straight lines of black slime and rotting flesh were left on the ground.

The little skeletons are active. When the two carrion corpses approached within ten meters, it took the initiative to rush out and meet one of the carrion. Only half of the bone knife fell heavily, slashing at the shoulder of the carrion, chopping off two pieces of carrion.

With a violent hiss, the rotting hands suddenly fell rapidly, smashing into the little skeleton's chest, knocking it back a step. The other carrion was also attracted by the little skeleton, and his hands slammed into the little skeleton's body, tearing off a bone.

Faced with the siege of two carrion corpses, the little skeleton behaved very bravely. Wielding a bone knife, it was repulsed again and again, and again and again, seizing every opportunity to leave a little memorial on the carrion.

Lan Wu stood behind, watching the two carrion corpses tear off the bones of the little skeleton, and had a rough assessment of the strength of the skeleton he had summoned.

At most, it is only one-third of the strength of the skeleton summoned by Volod.

The skeletons summoned by Volod are not bad, and on average, five knives can take out a carrion. But it was not easy for him to be slashed a few times, but the rotting corpse was still alive.

After obtaining the basic information, Lan Wu quickly stepped forward to join the warband. With his addition, the pressure on the little skeleton suddenly decreased, and the counterattack was obviously much better.

After all, rotting corpses are only the lowest undead creatures in the wasteland. Lan Wu and the little skeleton cooperated with each other and quickly dealt with the two carrion corpses. And the situation of the little skeleton at this time is extremely bad.

His left arm was broken at the shoulder, and there were only two ribs left to support his body from falling apart. It looks like an irresponsible monster doctor has pieced together this skeleton out of scraps.

Black demonic energy escaped from the carrion. Lan Wu glanced at the little skeleton, intending to summon one again, at least more like a skeleton than a skeleton that was about to fall apart. I didn't want him to look at it, but he saw the little skeleton standing in front of the rotting corpse with a bone knife. Wisps of black demonic energy spontaneously submerged into its body.

"Oh? Can it also be upgraded? Lan Wu was intrigued by the discovery. The two skeletons summoned by Volod before had not absorbed the slightest bit of demonic energy.

One person and one skeleton just quietly absorb experience points each. The two carrion corpses finally decomposed and completely turned into demonic energy. The two black demonic qi condensed in mid-air, and suddenly compressed inward, condensing into three gold coins and falling to the ground.

"Uh......" Lan Wu picked up three gold coins, very speechless. Although I feel very sorry for Volod, a good person who has helped me a lot, I have to admit that it is too appropriate for others to call him the unlucky Volod. Previously, killing thirty-four carrion corpses in a row only yielded two gold coins. Now that he is doing it alone, he only killed three carrion corpses and got three.

Volod's bad luck literally broke through the sky, and even the fifteen bug talismans on his body that had a 155% better chance of obtaining magic items were no longer able to resist.

Just thinking about it, Lan Wu saw that the little skeleton had also absorbed all the experience points. At this moment, most of the bones on its body have been repaired, and it is no longer as pitiful as it was just now. It carried a long bone knife and walked around lively, as if it was impatient to find its next opponent.

"It's a pity that I didn't recognize the scroll." Lan Wu had some regrets. If you have an identification scroll, you might even be able to see the attributes of the skeleton.

Suddenly, several black dots appeared in the distance. Lan Wu looked into the distance and could vaguely see that it was several figures. At a second glance, these people were followed by a dozen red fluttering things, as if they were chasing.

"Survivors." Lan Wu perked up and quickly followed with the little skeleton. The survivors were getting closer. He looked closely, a little dumbfounded.

Volod, who had just left alone not long ago, ran among these civilians.
