Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Zhuang Xuteng could already vaguely see the iron rope that lay ahead of the road to development. Not only does that chain have a guard, but the guard is also quite powerful and nearly invincible. Maybe he can be arrogant and lazy at times, but the chain may be electrified, and there may be mines underneath, quietly waiting for everyone who tries to cross.

There is of course no evidence on the surface that the company will eliminate users of black gun tactics, and there are not even many rumors secretly. What Zhuang Xuteng had was just a feeling, or a kind of alertness. He smelled danger and knew the road ahead was impassable.

If the road through implants and shadow slaves doesn't work, then try another way. No matter what, the black gun tactics are still the best personal tactics under the "Extraordinary Implant Warrior", and they are also suitable for Zhuang Xuteng's current reality. . His idea was to open a path through necromancy and see if the Lich Master could solve his needs.

In the stone pillar hall, the Lich Master always sits on the throne, treating loneliness and loneliness as nothing. It is thinking all day long. Since the mind of the undead cannot be probed, no one can know what is thinking in its mind. Zhuang Xuteng gave the usual greetings, and then told the Lich Master about the black gun shooter. Unexpectedly, the Lich Master did not give a solution. Instead, he laughed twice and said that Zhuang Xuteng's world was essentially the same as his world.

"What does it take for the strong to stay strong? On the one hand, they strive to improve themselves, and on the other hand, they prevent others from catching up. In your world, control implants, shadow spells, and tactics that may threaten the upper levels. Minecraft has done the same thing, but replaced it with strategic spells, eternal life research, and special spell materials.”

Zhuang Xuteng heard one word very keenly, "Zeng".

"Yes, my world stopped doing that, and it started with me." The Lich Master pointed at the stone pillar in front of him and said, "I took the lead in publishing all my spells, including my experience of becoming a lich. Anyone with enough knowledge can read these messages, and all I ask of them is to do the same. Master Lich...I am not called a Master because I am a lich."

Zhuang Xuteng nodded and complimented: "You can take the lead in doing this, and you can indeed be called a master. What is your original intention?"

"I worked too hard when I was studying. I just feel that people who do that are very immoral, and I can't get any happiness from treating others like this, not at all." The Lich Master said: "It's hard for me. To be satisfied, there is no point in tossing ordinary people. If you want to toss, just toss those powerful guys. After I did this, I immediately encountered great resistance, but they couldn't do anything to me, and too many people died. It was too thorough, and in the end they had no choice but to acquiesce to the status quo.”

From the words of the Lich Master, Zhuang Xuteng could hear the murderous intent. He asked: "How many people have you killed for this matter?"

"At that time, there were at least 70 or 80 archmages who were about the same level as me. If we add their apprentices and ordinary spell casters who were affected in the joint casting ceremony, it would be more than two million..." Master Lich chuckled twice, Said: "Some people will never make changes until they die, and some people only want to make changes before they die - I never give them a chance to regret."

"Did they take the initiative to kill you?"

"Only a very small proportion, most of them were killed by me." Master Lich said to Zhuang Xuteng: "After seeing my stone pillar hall, there were many people who took the initiative to persuade me and stop me. I'm sure There are not many people who can kill me. But in spell battles, the one who strikes first always has the advantage. I carefully weighed the situation at that time and then chose to take the initiative. Zhuang Xuteng, you have to keep one thing in mind: once you take action, don’t look back. Until the original goals are achieved.”

"I'm not as capable as you, let alone as murderous as you. With more than two million people, you are really ruthless..." Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and quickly ended this frightening topic. "Master, about the black gun shooter..."

"Isn't it enough to let the body lose some characteristics and turn into a corpse? Do you think I have a heartbeat or body temperature?"

"There must be no heartbeat." Zhuang Xuteng pointed at the Lich Master's skeleton and said, "But I don't know if it has body temperature. I haven't touched you."

Master Lich tilted his head slightly, as if thinking about whether Zhuang Xuteng would come up and touch it. "If you can use your brain a little bit, you will immediately find that the tactics of black gun shooters will not work if you follow the veteran's ideas."

Zhuang Xuteng smiled and said: "You won't be able to ridicule me this time. I have indeed thought about it. Using the shadow slave to cover up physical features, what about the energy response of the shadow slave? Maybe in a battlefield environment, there is no way to deal with it. Shadow slave signal detection is implemented in large areas, but in urban environments, especially indoors, the shadow slave signal cannot be blocked. I can use the Eye of Shadow to detect the shadow slave signal, and I have won a victory with it. If I can do it , the company will definitely be able to do it.”

Master Lich nodded and said: "It's okay this time, at least I used my brain. Before, you followed the cook of that gang, called..."

"Heisenberg." Zhuang Xuteng would never forget that name.

"Yes, Heisenberg. He is just a gang cook. The shadow follower spell he learned is considered wild. He can also see the shadow follower signal from a few meters away. You must think that a stronger opponent must have stronger means. "

"Be prepared to show leniency to the enemy..." Zhuang Xuteng was stunned for a moment and said, "Where did this word come from?"

"What do you mean? It's a good saying to be lenient when you anticipate the enemy. It..." Master Lich immediately reacted and said, "Could it have jumped out from your pillar?"

"You mean the information Boss Qian left for me?" Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head. He wanted to continue talking about the black gun shooter, but was directly interrupted by the Lich Master.

"That problem of yours is easy to solve! Now go look at the pillars!"

The Lich Master is always full of great enthusiasm for Zhuang Xuteng's pillars, and he is clearly a "difficult person to satisfy". Zhuang Xuteng gradually began to understand that new knowledge could impress the Lich Master, but the tormenting cycle of the old era was meaningless to him. Perhaps yearning for the "new", "unknown" and "future" is its real motive for choosing to kill those more than two million people...

Humph, he published his knowledge, most likely to force others to do the same, so as to gain access to those people's knowledge. By the way, he claims that his palace of knowledge is the most comprehensive, which shows that it indeed covers a lot of things.

Zhuang Xuteng was urged by the Lich Master to come to his stone pillar, and things really changed. The amount of text on the stone pillars has increased. Originally, only one paragraph was displayed at a time, and the previous paragraph could not be connected with the next paragraph. Now, the text that appears has become three or four paragraphs that flow smoothly. There are hundreds of words at a time, and some of them can already be seen. The article is careless.

"The content of the article is very important," Lich Master's voice became particularly solemn and solemn, it said, "Why it became like this, this reason is even more important."

Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and said: "I will come here to read to you when I have free time, and we will collect things on the stone pillars together. You are curious, and I am also curious - I feel the fun of learning new things more and more now. As for Why it happened like this, I guess it has something to do with Doyle’s story about the black gun shooter.”

"You deliberately brought the topic back to the black gun shooter, right? I promised to give you a solution, so I will do what I say."

"No, I'm not urging you, but I really feel it." Zhuang Xuteng waved his hand quickly and said solemnly: "From how the company treats black gun tactics, especially covering up this information and gathering relevant resources and power, I feel Their obsession with maintaining their super status. I never thought about this aspect before. I always thought that all companies were after was money. No, I now think that it is much more complicated than that. There is a set of things in it, like... I can’t quite describe it, it’s probably similar to the structure of a spell.”

The Lich Master was silent for a while. It must be thinking about something that no one else could detect.

"You said I should pay attention to war-related information. It seems you were right." Zhuang Xuteng broke the silence and said: "It was good that the pillars changed last time, but new words popped into my head. Think about it carefully. It’s actually quite scary to think about.”

"Scary? This is nothing! It's just absorbing a part of the knowledge." Master Lich said: "If you continue to improve your spell level, you can put all the knowledge of another person into your head."

"Is that okay?" Zhuang Xuteng realized that he had asked a stupid question. Since the Lich Master can say this, it must be okay. "Did you take all the knowledge of those two million people..."

"I'm not that crazy." The Lich Master said: "The only person who really allowed me to take away all the knowledge was my teacher. That was the beginning of my turning everything around. I was still human at the time, and it didn't feel good, so I Use the Stone Pillar Hall to exchange knowledge instead of taking everything. Okay, Black Gun Shooter, I promise you."

The Lich Master proposed an idea, which is to completely use necromancy to complete the tactical construction of the black gun shooter, and try to avoid two things that are easily exposed: living people and shadow energy.

It is obviously unrealistic to completely transform Zhuang Xuteng into the undead. Whether it is a skeleton, a zombie or a lich, Zhuang Xuteng will definitely not agree to it. The Lich Master respected this very much, and he would never agree to turn himself into a lich until he had his seventh child. Who would choose not to die if there was no threat of death?

The method given by Master Lich is related to Zhuang Xuteng's physique, which is the "zombie physique". According to Master Lich's personal experience, when Zhuang Xuteng lent his body to others, his own consciousness was still there, so that his body would not reject the newly entered consciousness. Rejection reactions at the soul and mental level are much more powerful and dangerous than implants. Zhuang Xuteng's extremely high zombie physical level is actually the level at which he can maintain himself after his consciousness is invaded.

"But I don't remember what others did when they used my body..." Zhuang Xuteng expressed confusion.

"I suspect that it is the zombie shadow slave, that is, some kind of effect of that headband, which makes your spirit blank." The Lich Master said: "There is a spell that can keep consciousness alive, but it can only send messages, not Take it. From the looks of it, he looks like he's asleep. Let's forget about that and focus on the black gun shooter!"

The solution proposed by Master Lich is to further develop the zombie's physique so that when others come in, they can go out on their own, that is, to exchange bodies. The target of the exchange is a wraith, and it cannot be an ordinary wraith. It must be a ghost or above, preferably at the level of a banshee. Zhuang Xuteng ordered the ghost to possess him and at the same time stimulate the zombie's physique, thereby attaching his consciousness to the resentful spirit.

"This is more advanced, difficult, and more effective than controlling the wraiths I taught you before. You sense the surroundings through the wraiths and use the channels formed by the necromancy to transfer mana. You can use the necromancy-driven Everything, including the bone spear technique. I think if you absorb other people's shadow follower energy, you should also be able to drive shadow follower weapons, such as shadow follower guns or other things - you need to actually try it to know."

"Sounds great, but what about my body? Rejection!"

"The wraith cannot control your body. It is too heavy and energetic, completely beyond the level of consciousness of the wraith. Don't forget that I have always been in your body. Even with my ability, I can't make your body do what you want." Do this and do that. I could still see and hear before, but not now. You are a living person, and the line between life and death is very large, and the stronger your magic power, the harder it is to be affected."

The Lich Master said: "The resentful spirits can't do anything to you, and they can't do anything to me either. I'm equivalent to your guard. Your body will be fine. It will sit quietly, motionless, as if sleeping. . However, your body has no protective ability at this time, and you may not even be able to activate the shadow slave, so you are very vulnerable. If your body dies, you will die too."

Zhuang Xuteng scratched his head and asked, "What should I do?"

"Find someone to protect you, hide in a safe place, or the simplest way: raise another resentful spirit."

Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and said: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, it is definitely better to let the resentful spirit take the risk than to do it physically. By the way, if the resentful spirit is killed, I..."

"Your consciousness will return to your body. There will be no physical damage, but you will have headaches for several days, and you will also have symptoms of dizziness, vomiting, and loss of control of your hands and feet. You will definitely need to rest. You can recover in the long run. There is no real risk." Lich Master said: "In my world, many necromancers will use this method to explore dangerous places or perform dangerous spell experiments."

"How far can a resentful spirit leave me?" Zhuang Xuteng asked.

"It depends on your spell level and mana. If it were me, I could make the wraiths move around in any corner of the world. It's hard to say for you. Look at how far you can send the wraiths out now. Double that distance. That's about it." Master Lich said: "If you want to ensure stable mana transfer, you can cast spells such as Bone Spear, which is actually the scope of activity of your resentful spirit now."

"That's only fifty meters..."

"So you need to practice your spells well!" Master Lich snorted and said, "Look at you now, you are actually almost ready in terms of implants. Shadow follower spells and shadow follower devices are not suitable for your action mode. The only remaining ones are martial arts and spells that are worthy of continued investment. Martial arts help you with melee combat, and spells extend your range of control. This is actually a pretty good system."
