Necromancer: I Am A Disaster
Chapter 96: Desert Fruits Can Only Be Encountered By A Fluke

The Skeletal Warriors rushed toward the oasis.

Without any surprise, a large group of Desert Scorpions met them.

The Skeletal Warriors didn't attack, but instead drew the Desert Scorpions along the oasis waterway.

The Desert Scorpions relentlessly pursued the Skeletal Warriors.

The Skeletal Warriors adjusted their running speed, so that the Desert Scorpion could keep up with them.

As time passed, the group grew larger. The Desert Scorpions along the way joined the pursuit.

Lin Moyu followed behind the group, maintaining a distance of about 1,000 meters.

After running for half an hour, young ants appeared at last.

Lin Moyu quickly accelerated his speed, while the Skeletal Warriors stopped and engaged in battle with the Desert Scorpions.

Faced with the Skeletal Warriors, the Desert Scorpions died one after another.

Thanks to the huge disparity in attributes, it was basically a unilateral massacre.

By the time Lin Moyu arrived, one-third of the Desert Scorpions had been killed already.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions sounded abruptly.

Yellow sand rose into the air.

Skill: Corpse Explosion!

Lin Moyu used his skill without stop, without sparing spirit force.

Even though all the Desert Scorpions have already died, but he still continued to cast his skill.

He is grinding his skill.

Last time he was in the dungeon, Lin Moyu felt that Corpse Explosion was about to level up.

After using the skill 30 to 40 times and consuming one-third of his spirit force, the skill finally leveled up.

[Corpse Explosion (level 3), detonate a corpse and deal 20% of the corpse's health as damage to enemies within a radius of three meters.]

The skill's range and damage increased.

After his talent's amplification, the range reached 100 meters and the damage reached 600% of the corpse's health.

His attack power has been greatly upgraded.

Before arriving at the ant colony, Lin Moyu once again saw the patches of cacti.

Unfortunately, the cacti didn't bear any fruits this time.

Just as Bai Yiyuan said, the fruits can only be encountered by a fluke.

A slight disappointment welled up inside Lin Moyu's heart, then was erased in the next moment.

"Now let's do level grinding. Can't waste the points."

The skeletal army rushed into the ant colony.

Thanks to the previous experience, he didn't have to explore the terrain this time.

The group made a beeline toward the place where the queen ant is located.

Gradually, a swarm following behind them formed, composed of young ants, worker ants, soldier ants, and flying ants.

There were hundreds of ants.

Lin Moyu conjured Bone Armor and kept far away to the rear.

When the group arrived in front of the nest of the queen ant, the ants stopped outside, not daring to enter.

Many dungeons seem to have the same feature, where small fry monsters not dare to enter the territory of the boss.

Lin Moyu didn't replace this strange.

Skeletal Warriors stopped at an intersection and engaged the ants.

When Lin Moyu arrived, he ended the battle with Corpse Explosion.

He looked at the flood of notifications and smiled in his heart, "Another wave of EXP."

Since he entered the dungeon, his EXP soared twice, one being when he killed the Desert Scorpions and the other being now.

These two waves increased his EXP by 15%.

This is just the appetizer. The main big dish hasn't been served yet.

Lin Moyu drank a bottle of Elementary Spirit Potion, restoring 100 points of spirit force.

Although 100 points of spirit force isn't much, but it is still enough for him to use Corpse Explosion 10 times or conjure Bone Armor several times.

After wiping out the small fry monsters, the group rushed into the queen ant's room and charged toward the four personal guards of the queen ant.

"Concentrated fire!"

Under a round of concentrated fire, a Queen Ant's Personal Guard was instantly killed.

At this point, the other three Queen Ant's Personal Guards assumed a defensive state.

They unleashed their skill, and a luster appeared on their shell, pushing their defense to the limit.

Skeletal Warriors rained down attacks on them.

At the same time, a massive number of attacks -- wind, fire, lightning, and ice -- fell on the Queen Ant's Personal Guards, rapidly whittling away at their defensive skill.

The queen ant flapped her wings and screeched, launching the skill Sonic Wave Attack.

Lin Moyu has experienced the queen ant's Sonic Wave Attack before.

Although it has a large area of effect, but its power isn't very high.

Lin Moyu's Bone Armor flickered repeatedly as it resisted the attack.

This is even more true for the Skeletal Warriors.

It's not that it had no effect, but that it had no impact.

The Skeletal Warriors persisted with their offensive. In just 10 seconds, the luster of the three Queen Ant's Personal Guard dimmed by a lot.

The queen ant flapped her wings.

Skill: Windstorm Strike!

In an instant, a windstorm struck and blew the Skeletal Warriors away.

After landing on the ground, the Skeletal Warriors got up at once and lunged at the enemy.

Skeletal Mages stood in front of Lin Moyu and acted as meat shields.

Seeing that the luster of the Queen Ant's Personal Guards was about to disappear, Lin Moyu issued an order in his heart.

The Skeletal Warriors unleashed their skill one after another.

Skill: Berserk Strike.

Almost in an instant, the defense of the three Queen Ant's Personal Guards collapsed, and they were pushed to the brink of death.

Skeletal Mages gave the coup de grâce, and a large amount of radiances dropped.

At the same time, Lin Moyu lifted his palm.

Skill: Corpse Explosion!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Four explosions swept through the cavern.

Along with miserable shrieks, the queen ant was heavily injured. She unleashed the skill Huddle and curled up.

In the curled up state, the queen ant's wounds healed quickly.

At the same time, its screeches echoed through the entire ant colony.

Lin Moyu curved his lips into a smile. He was waiting for this moment.

Unlike last time, he hasn't cleared the monsters in the ant colony this time.

The number of ants inside the colony is astonishing.

He just has to wait for the ants to deliver themselves to his door.

A number of Skeletal Warriors ran back and stood in front of him.

A dozen-plus seconds later, crawling sounds rose in the cavern, accompanied by ant screeches.

Swarms of ants rushed over from different directions.

Soon, black ants appeared in sight.

The ground was crawling with ants, while the air was claimed by flying ants.

After waiting for two more seconds, the ants were less than 20 meters away.

"Get started!"

Following Lin Moyu's order, the Skeletal Warriors responded. The Skeletal Mages were even faster.

Dozens of skills were launched simultaneously.

In a flash, the cavern was filled with colorful lights.

The ant swarm unleashed screeches, some ants already dead.

Lin Moyu instantly locked on the dead monsters.

Skill: Corpse Explosion!

Explosions rose one after another, in a rhythmic fashion, and resounded through the cavern.

The entire cavern jolted and trembled.

Lin Moyu didn't act in the heat of the moment, but waited for more ants to come before unleashing each explosion.

Gradually, a large number of ant corpses began to accumulate in the cavern, forming a small mountain.

The ants who came in later knocked over the small mountain and charged toward Lin Moyu while stepping on the corpses of their kin.

Under the effect of the queen ant's summon, the ants lost all fear.

Massive amounts of EXP surged.

In the blink of an eye, his EXP reached 50%

This speed is simply astounding.

After reaching level 21, the leveling speed slowed down once again.

Although it's not as big a jump like the jump every five levels, but it's still at least 10% slower.

Lin Moyu estimates that, after clearing Tyrant Desert this time, it will be already pretty good is his EXP can exceed 85%.

Things will only become slower later.

"It's a bit slow!"

Lin Moyu couldn't help but sigh.

If other people were to hear this, they would feel like vomiting blood.

When others go from level 20 to level 30, it takes them one to three years.

But with his speed, Lin Moyu will take one to two months to reach level 30.

Yet this is still slow.

If you compare your lot to others, you will only torture yourself.

After 10 minutes, there were no more monsters rushing over.

All the monsters in the ant colony have died.

The queen ant's screeches also stopped.

The curled up state was lifted, and the queen ant was fully healed.

However, it's just waiting to be overwhelmed by the Skeletal Warriors and Skeletal Mages.

135 Skeletal Warriors wielded their large blades, unleashed their skill, and attacked the queen ant from different directions.

The queen ant, who had just been healed, was pushed to the brink of death in an instant.

The magic skills of the Skeletal Mages flooded in and gave it the coup de grâce.

The queen ant was killed almost in an instant.

Lin Moyu didn't even have to use Soul Blaze.

[Killed Desert Queen Ant, EXP +800,000]

[Obtained silver rank weapon: Queen Ant's Sword]

[Obtained elementary monster core]

[Queen Ant's Sword: silver rank weapon, strength +80, physique +80, increases the power of sword skills by 13%, usable after level 20]

[Queen Ant's Ring: silver rank accessory, spirit +50, physique +50, increases the restoration of spirit force by 10%, usable after level 20]

This time's harvest wasn't as great as last time.

He didn't get a Desert Queen Ant’s Egg.

Stepping over the corpse of the queen ant, Lin Moyu walked out of the ant colony and entered the territory of the Lionmen, overlooking the towering castle and the sturdy gate.

Lin Moyu has learned that in order to quickly breach the gate, you need siege equipment.

Siege equipment isn't sold at the trade office. In order to obtain it, you need to collect materials and replace a Blacksmith to make it for you.

But Lin Moyu is too busy for that.

He still used the simple and crude method, that is, the skeletons breaking through the gate.

At most, it entails wasting a few more minutes.

At this time, it has only been five hours since he entered the dungeon, which is more than twice as fast as last time

He can afford to waste this much time.

"World rank boss, I'm here again!"

Lin Moyu waved his hand, and the skeletal army rushed forward.
