Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

Chapter 14: Wild Copy!

Looking at the mine leading to the underground, Zi Liyuan lapsed into deep thought.

Logically speaking, being so close to White Crane City, even if a goblin camp was deliberately left behind, it should not have contained a rare Goblin Wizard Boss.

After all, such a creature was a significant threat to low-level professionals.

Especially this Goblin Wizard, who could command all the goblins in the camp, it was the kind of rare Boss that might launch a monster attack on the city!

"Did it avoid the patrol team's detection and secretly promote its template within the depths of the mine?"

Like professionals, monsters in the wild needed to change their job class to improve after reaching a certain level.

Either by breaking through their limits to enhance their attributes, or by meeting certain specific conditions to complete a template advancement.

Generally, within a hundred kilometers of a large city, the appearance of rare or higher level Bosses was not allowed, unless the Boss was linked to a Secret Realm. Otherwise, it would definitely be cleared away.

"So, this mine either contains a Secret Realm or possesses a special treasure that allows elite templates to be promoted!"

With these thoughts in mind, Zi Liyuan took out his pocket watch and checked the time.

9:43:07

From the dungeon reset at midnight until now, after defeating the goblin camp, nearly 10 hours had passed.

To job change at level 20, another 200,000 experience points were needed, and with the time left in the day, it just wasn't enough to level up. Given this, it was better to explore the mine.

If he were to report it directly, and if there were any good items inside, wouldn't that be a great loss?

No sooner had he thought this than Zi Liyuan immediately dismissed the Skeleton Behemoth and Skeleton Knights back and called out 10 Shield Combat Skeletons.

There was no helping it; goblins were short, averaging about 1.5 meters in height, and the mine was less than two meters tall, making it impossible for the larger and taller Skeleton Behemoth and Skeleton Knights to enter into combat.

Thus, the only skeletons that could serve as frontline tanks were the Shield Combat Skeletons.

Fortunately, at level 4, the Shield Combat Skeletons had 16 physical defense and 180 health. They were a bit fragile, but scouting and drawing out monsters were still no problem.

Inside the mine, there were still goblins lingering, but compared to the ones in the camp, these goblins were level 20~25, basically without any equipment, and their weapons had become various mining tools.

Clearly, among the goblin ranks, these mining goblins were expendables among expendables.

The Skeleton Army swept through the goblin miners like cutting through butter, but as they delved deeper underground, their speed began to slow down, particularly because the subterranean tunnels were a chaotic mess.

During this, Zi Liyuan encountered several dead-ends and could only helplessly turn back before choosing another tunnel.

It wasn't until he saw a huge stone building from afar that he had to stop his steps.

The rough craftsmanship of the building boasted no artistic quality, and within the structure, which lacked a proper door, an altar had been erected.

At this moment, a blood-red barrier calmly rested upon the altar, casting strands of bloody light.

"A wild dungeon?!"

At this moment, Zi Liyuan's eyes glittered with excitement, almost unable to wait to check out this wild dungeon.

A wild dungeon was one that had not yet been conquered by professionals.

Such dungeons, over time, would have their monsters burst through the dungeon gates and descend upon the real world.

If not cleared promptly, once the wild dungeon fully integrated into the world, a monster lair would appear, periodically spawning hero-quality or higher Bosses.

By that time, monsters within a thousand miles would be manipulated by this BOSS, thereby initiating a monster tide to attack nearby cities and towns.

To completely destroy the monster's nest, one must use a remarkably precious Lord's Heart to purify the area where the monster nest is located.

However, each Lord's Heart can give rise to a Lord in the Sea of Realms, and its value is countless times higher than that of a monster nest.

Therefore, whenever a wild dungeon is encountered, the empire's higher-ups would immediately arrange for suitable professionals to begin reclamation.

Reclamation carries an extremely high risk, but the rewards are equally colossal, and there's even an incredibly slim chance to obtain a Lord's Heart.

These were the details Zi Liyuan had read about in his textbooks during his senior year of high school.

Now, recalling this, his eyes blazed with golden light.

What slim chances? In his view, wasn't it a guaranteed one hundred percent retrieval?

Don't believe it?

Go ask the goddess of luck!

To obtain a Lord's Heart, one needs to break the core of the wild dungeon, thereby gaining complete control over it.

Then, by consuming the dungeon's origin power, one can condense a dungeon treasure chest and possibly obtain a Lord's Heart from it.

However, as a result, the dungeon would lose some of its origin power, causing its quality to drop a tier, and it would also be included in the daily dungeon runs for professionals.

The private dungeons controlled by schools or large family powers are ones that were claimed from wild dungeons, sealed using special items, and then moved to a specified area.

Clearly, this wild dungeon had been around for quite some time, not only had a huge goblin camp formed outside, but a rare BOSS had also appeared.

If someone doesn't reclaim it quickly and break the dungeon core, who knows when it will fuse into the real world. When that happens and a monster tide forms, it will undoubtedly cause major trouble for nearby cities.

In order not to bring disaster to the nearby cities, Zi Liyuan decided to conquer this wild dungeon!

With this thought in mind, he turned his gaze to the stone structure where 12 elite goblin BOSSes were stationed.

He adjusted the Skeleton Army's formation. Twenty Shield Combat Skeletons, carrying Bone Shields, launched a Charge, blocking the entrance of the stone structure.

The appearance of the Skeleton Army immediately caught the attention of the goblin BOSSes inside the building, but since the doorway was narrow, at most four goblin BOSSes could line up to pass through.

Now, with the doorway blocked by a multitude of Shield Combat Skeletons, even if these skeletons were brittle enough to be smashed into bone fragments by the BOSS's skills in an instant, the constant influx of Shield Combat Skeletons kept the door plugged.

Zi Liyuan, standing not far away, was commanding the Shield Combat Skeletons to block the door as cannon fodder while continuously summoning more Shield Combat Skeletons to ensure the goblin BOSSes couldn't break through the entrance, occasionally finding time to launch both Shadow Arrow Rain and Death Shadow Arrows.

The Crossbow Skeletons lined up beside him, bows drawn and arrows notched, concentrating their fire.

In the narrow corridor, layers upon layers of bone debris accumulated, and yet this could not deter the determination of the Shield Combat Skeletons to embrace their demise.

The first line of Shield Combat Skeletons that made contact were instantly killed by the goblin BOSSes with two skills, but the second line of Shield Combat Skeletons successfully stalled the BOSSes' progress.

The doorway became a fiercely contested battlefield; the BOSSes wanted to charge out, and the Shield Combat Skeletons wanted to push in. The two forces were incompatible, resulting in a brawl.

Unfortunately for the goblin BOSSes, the Shield Combat Skeletons didn't play fair, bringing quite the backup. A volley of crossbow bolts rained down, causing immense trouble for the goblin BOSSes who could only grimace and then vent their frustration on the Shield Combat Skeletons.
