The Rise of the Cemetery

(Thanks to Everbright for your consistent support, this is the second update)

Staying in the magic tower of the Undercity, and doing another in-depth spiritual analysis for himself, Li Xun ended today's compulsory class.

As the master and leader of the cemetery, Li Xun does not have the evil talent of being wise and close to monsters, nor does he have the political acumen that is good at dancing. The only strength is probably knowing people and making good use of them.

Do not doubt the employment, do not use the doubt!

This sentence is easy to say, but if it is really necessary to implement it routinely, it is not something ordinary people can persist.

After planning the long-term planning of each region, Li Xun has completely delegated the rest of the trivial matters. The continuous emergence of talents in the cemetery and the continuous expansion of the region also gave him more room for trial and error and tolerance for mistakes.

Hand over the wizard world to Karthus completely; hand over the 43rd layer of the abyss plane to the demon wizard; hand over the 348th layer of the abyss plane to the soul guard Serge; The "Dragon Heart" incidents in the states of En and Talanta Plains were completely handed over to the Blood Demon; the frontal battle against the Undead Council was handed over to Siris and Jack who were stationed in Mars City, the corpse grave demon; "Operation God Killing" was delivered to Skeleton King and Uzel...

Once the task was assigned like this, Li Xun, the master of the cemetery, was left behind.

Although these tasks require him to follow up and observe every critical node, but in the past few days, he is really free.

Since he just successfully advanced to level 16 a while ago, Li Xun is now a master of the undead. But he was so busy, he didn't even master an 8th-level spell.

It's nothing but a name, but nothing in fact!

However, the book of death that I have been holding in my hand has gained a little.

With the improvement of Li Xun's spiritual power and his unremitting efforts, he finally memorized the first page of the book of death completely. As a result, he gained a +1 intelligence boost again, and unlocked part of the book of the dead.

Character: Li Xun (Natir)

Identity: Lord of the Graveyard

Occupation: Undead Master

Talent: Soul Domain (fourth and a half advanced levels)

Level: Level 16

Strength: 9

Dexterity: 7(-2)

Constitution: 8 (-4)

Intelligence: 19

Perception: 23

Charm: 14

Magic Pet: Crow Mouth

Feats: Spell Mastery, Spell Improvement

Magical Equipment: Dragontooth Crown (head), Soul Weaver (staff), Dawi Robe (robe), Gale Boots (foot), Powerful Rune Ring (finger), Knuckle Ring (finger) , Mind Talisman (neck), Book of the Dead (right hand)

This is basically Li Xun's current basic physical data and magic equipment.

From this basic data, it can be seen that Undead Master is indeed worthy of being a spellcaster with short legs and thin blood. The -2 agility penalty is enough, but the -4 constitution penalty is unbearable.

This is because Li Xun is young, strong, and full of blood, which is why he has a physical value of nearly 8 points. If it was replaced by an old man or a sick young man with a weaker physique, the undead man would be punished by -4 points for his physique, which would definitely turn him into a humanoid skeleton no better than a skeleton.

Even so, Li Xun, who is at the peak of his body, will still feel guilty and short of breath if he engages in too strenuous activities. This is the most troublesome thing after taking up the post of Undead Master and going to the teacher.

It seems that if there is a chance in the future, Li Xun can only look for more treasures and wonders that can enhance the basic physique to make up for the shortcomings caused by the profession.

The partially unlocked Book of the Dead also brought a series of benefits to Li Xun, that is, direct skill rewards. From Tier 1 to Tier 8, each Tier gets a brand new spell.

This reward sounds very inconspicuous, but you must know that these are all brand new spells, special spells that have never appeared in any history books or magic books! Li Xun estimated that these should be the exclusive spells directly created or improved by the previous holders of the Book of the Dead.

The language of the undead, level 1, seems to be used to communicate with the undead.

Ethereal body, level 2, allows part of the body to obtain a virtual effect similar to that of a spirit body, and is immune to physical damage.

Dark Banner, Tier 3, creates a dark area that completely swallows light, and only the caster can see.

Stamina sucking, level 4, absorbs energy from the subject, allowing the caster to recover their mobility.

Organ replacement, level 5, replaces the caster's own organs with powerful magical organs.

Falling Curse, level 6, reduces the target's body resistance with a unique curse technique.

Heart of Stone, level 7, temporarily replaces the target's heart with a stone heart.

Shield of evil spirits, level 8, a protective magic shield made of 5 undead banshee resentment cores as materials.

New spells still need to be practiced repeatedly to become familiar with, so with nothing to do, Li Xun arrived at the starry sky stronghold that was under construction.

Compared with the last time, the starry sky stronghold at this time has completely changed its appearance.

A single demiplane itself has expanded more than three times, from the original 300 meters in diameter to the current more than 500 meters in diameter. And outside the light blue energy barrier of the demiplane, there are still five or six "small satellites" that flip and oscillate endlessly.

Um? It's been a while since I've been here. When will there be a few more "small satellites" in the starry sky stronghold?

Li Xun took a closer look curiously, and it turned out that it was not the "small satellite" he imagined at all, but some "garbage" that the garrisoned corpse witches tried their best to bring back from the depths of the nearby starry sky.

In fact, the rubbish Li Xun mentioned refers to some broken planes or demi-planes, floating in the sea of ​​stars, and fragments of the planes that have not been completely disintegrated.

Some plane fragments can often be found in the depths of the star sea. These plane fragments may be large or small, the large ones can be as huge as a complete continent, and the small ones may only be a few meters in diameter. Of course, the ones that can be found and brought back by Lichs are small or ultra-small plane fragments.

Li Xun looked down and saw that the color of the soil under his feet was not consistent, showing a distinct transition. No wonder the area of ​​the starry sky stronghold will increase. It turned out that the garrisoned Lich had kneaded the small fragments of the plane brought back together with the original half-plane, which caused the outer area to expand by nearly half.

And the five or six pieces of "planar fragments" that are still floating outside are only a few dozen meters large, and only one or two meters small. The basic materials are hard soil layers as hard as steel, and metal minerals can be vaguely seen inside. Slightly reflective.

They are all wrapped in a thin energy barrier at this moment, which also avoids the ubiquitous energy erosion and impact of the star sea. Otherwise, with their tiny size and thin body shape, it only takes three to five days to disintegrate into the tiniest particles in the endless energy tide of the star sea, and scatter them to any corner of the star sea.

With the increase in the area of ​​the demiplane, there is a lot more room to describe the magic circle, but most of the space is still given way to the energy-gathering circle.

There is no way, if you want to build a demiplane, the foundation of everything still lies in energy.

Only with sufficient magical energy, the elemental soil ball at the core of the demiplane can slowly assimilate the surrounding soil, allowing the core of the elemental soil to continue to expand. Only when the core of this demiplane becomes bigger and stronger can it cover more and bigger lands.

The reason why the five or six plane fragments outside were not kneaded together with the demiplane is probably because the current area has reached the limit of the demiplane. If you don't wait for the elemental earth ball to absorb the energy of the earth system to grow itself, it is useless to force the earth to pile up.

Since the starry sky stronghold is not listed as a forbidden area, as long as the personnel inside the large cemetery submit an application and report to the city lord of the cemetery to which they belong, they can use the teleportation array to come here to experience the vastness of the star sea, or do some special magic experiments.

For this reason, a simple magic laboratory was specially built in the middle of the starry sky stronghold.

Although the laboratory is very simple, there are not many people waiting to do experiments.

The door of the magic laboratory was closed tightly, and a dense magic mask completely sealed it. It can be seen that there are spellcasters conducting magic experiments inside. At the entrance of the laboratory, there were more than a dozen Lich and Blood Warlocks waiting in line, and while waiting, gathered in twos and threes to chat about something.

Since Li Xun was traveling in casual clothes, he did not follow those few dracolich staff. Then put the pressure of his soul back into his body, so the outsiders in the entire starry sky base did not recognize that the young and handsome "blood" mage with a gentle smile on his face was their soul Master - Master of the cemetery.

To be honest, after the large cemetery has been expanded repeatedly, there are more and more strange races from all sides. The Great Cemetery is no longer simply limited to the undead race.

At least those few blood magicians and blood mages who were waiting boredly outside the laboratory were similar to Li Xun in appearance and temperament. If it wasn't for his particularly keen mental power, ordinary people would not be able to detect Li Xun's soul origin at all, and would only treat him as a young blood magician.

The main reason why he is regarded as a blood magician instead of a blood mage is that he has a level 16 caster level and the gorgeous magic equipment that is not ordinary at first glance.

Although the mainstream teams in the Great Cemetery have crossed the threshold of level 16 one after another, compared to the larger basic teams, there are still a few guys who can cross level 16. Wherever such a guy goes, he will not be a small person.

So in the waiting line that had been having a lively conversation, the corpse witches nodded their heads one after another, and those blood mages and blood mages even pressed their chests to salute, showing full sincerity. And a 14th-level blood magician with the highest rank in the opponent's team walked over directly, and started chatting with Li Xun enthusiastically.

"The Blood Ancestor is supreme! Respected young strongman, hello! I'm Anstori from the Simmore family. I don't know which family you belong to?"

At present, the blood clan power in the Great Cemetery is not too large, which may be related to the fact that the blood demon, the ancestor of the blood clan, is only at level 19. But from this point forward, the clan power of the blood clan has already begun to sprout.

In the world of blood clans, seniority represents status and ability. Of course, since the blood race does not age, the actual age lived has nothing to do with the apparent age. Most of the families mentioned by the blood clan are small circles established with a powerful blood magician as the core.

Not long ago, Gorefiend announced that he would select some saints from within the blood clan based on their strength and meritorious service. Therefore, some powerful blood magicians who have the qualifications to compete have established families in their own names, openly recruited affiliated forces, and prepared for the competition for the number of saints.

Therefore, when the blood warlock saw a strong man with an unfamiliar face, he couldn't help but want to pull him into his clan.
