Chapter 111: The Zombie Forgemaster (Part 2)
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
The gamers had only heard that they could advance into a hidden character class by chance.
Creating a new character class was something the gamers did not even dare to think about. However, the Server Announcement made the players realize that one god-like person had succeeded in the act and had been credited in the game as a reward.
All the gamers entered the game’s forum and were crazily asking about it. All of them wanted to know how the player did it.
All of a sudden, the name Hu He was constantly being mentioned in the forum.
Meanwhile Hu He, who was staring at the Data Menu in front of him, was still in shock.
[Zombie Forgemaster]:
Class description: A Deathwalker that can create a new life from the body of a dead soul. A powerful Zombie Forgemaster is a master at zombie refining, zombie controlling, zombie awakening, zombie summoning, zombie assembling, zombie forging, zombie spirit parasitism, zombie spirit back-feeding, and other dark capabilities.
Class upgrade: Unsystematic advancement template, thus self-exploration needed.
Class specialty: The stronger the corpse, the stronger the spirit of the forged zombie. (Note: The stronger the corpse, the harder the forgery is.)
Looking at the menu of his newly advanced character class, Hu He was lost in his thoughts.
By the looks of the description, this character class seemed to have a great potential to be developed. At least there was one thing that the other character classes were incomparable in, which was that the strength of the zombie spirit was not limited by one’s self. As long as he could obtain the corpse of a powerhouse and manage to refine it, he could definitely kill enemies of higher levels even if his level was low.
Don’t tell me that I will need to go on the path of digging up and robbing graves to find the body of a powerhouse?
Thinking of this, Hu He did not know whether to laugh or cry.
His grandfather had been staying in the mass grave for his entire life and now he was going to be a gravedigger in the game. The specialty of this Zombie Spirit Sect was really spectacular.
However, his childhood experiences had turned him into an extremely brave person. He was not afraid of evil spirits like zombies or ghouls at all. Not to mention that this was just a gaming world, hence there was no need to worry too much.
After considering the direction of his future development, Hu He’s gaze fell to the remains on the floor which he had failed to put together, revealing a hint of perseverance. He then opened the ancient book again and started to assemble according to the steps in the book.
By relying on the experiences he had accumulated from each failure and the rich theoretical experiences he gained from reading ancient books, a cloud of faint black vapor finally appeared on the remains after he had put together the pieces thirty-two times. Then, the black vapor was slowly absorbed into the skeleton.
After the remains were being nourished by the black vapor, the gap between the bones at the joint areas automatically adjusted and solidified. Then, a weak soul flame erupted from the skull of the skeleton.
“I did it!” Hu He shouted excitedly.
[Zombie Skeleton Warrior (Grey)]: A failed zombie forging product that was made out of the remains of the bones spirit, broken bones warrior, and skull walker.
(Note: Over time, all zombie spirit creatures could absorb Yin energy and grow independently. The higher the quality of the zombie spirit, the faster it would grow.)
(Note: The quality of the zombie spirit creatures are divided into six stages. From the lowest to the highest stage are respectively grey (inferior), white (normal), blue (excellent), red (rare), purple (epic) and black (legendary).)
Strength evaluation: Physical strength (Level 28), attack speed (Level 2), attack power (Level 2).
Zombie spirit enchantment: None
Zombie spirit’s specialty: Slow-witted (Poor refining skills would only retain the original physical strength of the corpse. It could not stimulate the real power of the zombie spirit.)
Judging from the data, the forging of this Zombie Skeleton Warrior was a total failure. But Hu He was still elated as he knew that this path was really feasible.
At the same time, his desire to continue exploring the path had been aroused.
Looking at the sluggish Zombie Skeleton Warrior that was lying on the ground, a thought ran through Hu He’s mind.
After receiving an order, the Zombie Skeleton Warrior slowly got up from the ground. Then, it performed various actions according to Hu He’s orders.
The feeling of him being able to control a living creature made Hu he grin from ear to ear.
“Well… from today onward, I will be a gravedigger in the game, seeking for the body of a strong person and become someone powerful!”
Thinking of the powerful strength of the Demonic God and Hiderigami, his mind began to imagine him being lucky and found the remains as powerful as them from some relic. He then forged a superb zombie spirit and became undefeatable.
However, Hu He’s face froze when he thought of this.
Suddenly, he remembered a very important thing. Cha Na’s head seemed to be still hanging on the fortress gate after the Christmas Battle!
Hu He’s breaths became heavy and his eyes began to glow.
It would be the best material to forge a zombie if he could steal it. By then, he would put it together with a body and perhaps forge an extremely strong zombie spirit.
But, he was still hesitant. This was mainly because he was afraid that his behaviour would be discovered and he would become a sinner in the eyes of the other gamers.
After all, Cha Na’s head was a memento which marked the defeat of Liuli District. It had a symbolic meaning.
Hu He was torn and he remained silent for some time.
After pondering over and over again, Hu He was still reluctant to let go of the opportunity to obtain Cha Na’s head. Thus, he decided to steal it in the middle of the night when there was less people around.
Is this feeling of thirst for remains an occupational disease that is in the blood of the Zombie Spirit Sect? A guess emerged in Hu He’s mind.
He then laughed mischievously and walked toward the Mansion of the Dead together with his Zombie Skeleton Warrior.
A gravedigger, who was going to be spurned by many, officially embarked on his journey to becoming a Zombie Forgemaster.
……
Meanwhile, in the forum.
Crayon_Shinchan: “Where is the god-like person who created a new character class? Come out and show your skills.”
Xueli_The_Strongest: “I really want to know how he did it. There was also no official release to explain about it and the godlike person is also not active in the forum. This is so annoying.”
Strike_Gold: “I think our guild needs this kind of technical talent (Cool).”
Peppa_Boar: “A Zombie Forgemaster? A horrible guess came to my mind. Could it be that this brat got the knack of playing corpses and hence initiated the post-credits scene in the game? (chills)”
Crayon_Shinchan replied to Peppa_Boar: “Looking at the name of the character class and your guess, images are now flooding my mind (chills).”
Broke_Trash: “Someone please get the Attributes Menu of this character class. I suspect that this brat is a murderer in real life. It’s so scary. (funny face)”
Crayon_Shinchan: “I agree. Zombie Forgemaster, come out faster. I will call the cops if you still refuse to show the Attributes Menu. (funny face)”
